I think you basically have two choices depending on whether you have a country code in the eeprom or not. If you have a country code, I suggest you just use either one. As far as I know, though, you don't have country codes. So if there's a valid code in the EEPROM you probably should use the regdomain struct hint rather than the alpha2 hint and build a regdomain that contains both 2.4 and 5 GHz channels based on the two region values you have. johannes
