But that's not your problem, it's the missing WMM extension. Your AP should (additionally) display: WMM: * Parameter version 1 * BE: CW 15-1023, AIFSN 3 * BK: CW 15-1023, AIFSN 7 * VI: CW 7-15, AIFSN 2, TXOP 3008 usec * VO: CW 3-7, AIFSN 2, TXOP 1504 usec But since it doesn't, mac80211 does not enable ht. Maybe a new firmware for the router would fix the issue?
