From: Dan Halperin <dhalperi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The HT extension channel settings require priv->staging_rxon.channel to be accurate. However, iwl_set_rxon_ht was being called before iwl_set_rxon_channel and thus HT40 could be broken unless another call to iwl_mac_config came in. This problem was recently introduced by "iwlwifi: Fix to set correct ht configuration" The particular setting in which I noticed this was monitor mode: iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor ifconfig wlan0 up ./iw wlan0 set channel 64 HT40- #./iw wlan0 set channel 64 HT40- tcpdump -i wlan0 -y IEEE802_11_RADIO would only catch HT40 packets if I issued the IW command twice. >From visual inspection, iwl_set_rxon_channel does not depend on iwl_set_rxon_ht, so simply swapping them should be safe and fixes this problem.
