My AP is an off-the-shelf Netgear:
WNDR3700

It's only rate configuration option is '300Mbps', which appears to
turn on HT40.

It is configured for channel 10 (for the packet capture) and actually
passes traffic there.  It's just this HT Info thing with (primary-channel ==
(real_channel + 4))
that seems wrong.  Note that when I had the channel set to 11, it was
reporting
15 for the primary channel in the HT info.

Looks like a bug in that AP to me...but would be nice if there were a way to
work around it, in case others have similar issues.

Set it to channel 6, then?

It will still fail the control_chan test and so HT will not be enabled.

That's the symptom I've been chasing all day...just turns out that
the cause, for once, appears to not be my system :)

I'll look into adding a hack to allow HT to be enabled
if the channel is off-by-4.

Thanks,
Ben
