I noticed that SIOCGIWRANGE is not fully implemented. jonsmirl@jonsmirl:/extra/wireless_tools.29$ sudo iwlist wlan0 channel wlan0 0 channels Current Frequency:2.412 GHz jonsmirl@jonsmirl:/extra/wireless_tools.29$ Looking in ieee80211_ioctl.c the implementation is in ieee80211_ioctl_giwrange(). I can work on this, but how should it be done? There is no callout from the stack to the drivers for this IOCTL. It also doesn't make sense that each driver have the code to build the entire channel lists. But you do need to know whether the driver is b/g or a/b/g. How does the driver indicate which channel domain it is in, Japan/US/EU?
