Hi there, I approached Peter (who works for the Radio Spectrum branch of the NZ Government) at the New Zealand network operators conference last week (http://nznog.org) about fixing some rather outdated and wrong Regdb info for NZ chanlists. I found Luis's commits (out of a Qualcom project it appears) which fix some of the issues from a couple of months ago after the fact (I was using an outdated branch of the mac80211 driver from openwrt) . The commit: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/linville/wireless-regdb.git/commit/?id=a03fedab50684d7bf956da47dfdd91212d9a9004 goes some (long) way to fixing the list but what follows is a better reference. Peter has been trying to post to list but getting bounced as SPAM. Message follows. Kind regards Joel Wir?mu Pauling +64 21 171 8049 @aenertia --- Hi, I've recently been made aware that the current regulatory database for 5 GHz channelling is not up to date for New Zealand. Therefore we would like to suggest the following changes 5150 - 5250 MHz (indoor use only) 200 mW 5250 - 5350 MHz (indoor use only) 200 mW DFS enabled and Transmitter power control enabled 5250 - 5350 MHz (outdoor use) 1 W DFS enabled and Transmitter power control enabled 5470 - 5725 MHz 500 mW, transmitter power control not enabled 5470 - 5725 MHz 1 Watt, DFS enabled and transmitter power control enabled 5725 - 5875 MHz 1 Watt DFS not enabled 5725 - 5875 MHZ 4 Watts DFS enabled There are no restrictions on channel size however power densities are specified. Therefore 40 MHz channelling is allowed (up from the current state of 20 MHz channelling) at a minimum and all power values are given as EIRP in Watts include the gain of the system antenna Regards Peter Gent Peter Gent Planning Analyst Radio Spectrum Policy & Planning Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment DDI: +64 4 462 4279 33 Bowen Street, PO Box 1473, Wellington 6140 http://newzealand.govt.nz/ - connecting you to New Zealand central & local government services
