Does anyone know a revision for which ath5k is properly working? I am
yet to find one that works on my system.

Beaconing seems broken by Update PCU code dd1c9abd167de9bb9457a57694a1ab5e5801a0c1. After this patch, beacon debug says beacons sent, but sniffer sees none.

A snapshot of ath5k prior to this and git 12/10 (b6d06c9669f27db31a0317fc98fedc8ff1ba4822) works for me with hostapd/wpa. It's been running for the past few days.

Mesh beaconing also works. I didn't test two nodes; I only sniffed the beacons.

I had to comment out 5GHz in caps.c because of too many channels. It's a nl80211 buffer size problem that's been discussed.
