No HT20 is not the same as HT-Only.  I'm not sure how to set that. Jouni?

I found a post from a year or so ago that indicates hostapd doesn't
support this type of thing (that could have changed, of course).

Do you know of any commercial APs that support the HT-only feature?
(And/Or a general strategy for configuring it?)

On 5Ghz channels, they are sent at 6Mbps
On channel 3 (2.4Ghz), they are sent at 1Mbps


That seem right?

Yes, for a HT20 but not HT Only AP.

Seems to me that the probe-request is to any/all APs,
so how could we possibly know that we should send it
at 6Mbps v/s 1Mbps until we discovered and communicated
with it?

Thanks,
Ben
