Richard,
Because current open source mdwifi and mac80211 do not
support atheros 802.11n chip yet.
Does Atheros provide 802.11n driver for its 802.11n
chip? Where does Dlink get 802.11n atheros driver for
its aceess point products?

You should ask Atheros for that, drivers exist out there but not for
us, D-Link/Apple etc have signed agreements with Atheros and have
access to stuff that we don't have access to. As far as i know Atheros
is willing to support n for linux, we 'll just wait and see...

iwl4965 is for Intel=AE Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN (http://www.intel.co=
m/network/connectivity/products/wireless/wireless_n/overview.htm) and w=
orks quite well. I have tested version 1.1.17 of the driver successfull=
y connecting to a Atheros-based 11n access point by D-Link and reached =
about 80 MBit/s UDP netto.

None yet. 802.11n support is just being added to the mac80211 stack,
and driver support will follow.

Not yet, we 're working on fixing several issues right now.
As for Atheros's 802.11n parts, we still have lot of work to do, even
madwifi/binary HAL doesn't support n right now.

Dan,
1. I was told that only iwl4965 and b43 attempt to
support 802.11n, of which only iwl4965 is functional.
2. Any schedule for 802.11n on mac80211?
3. Does mac80211 run on atheros chip for access point?
It seems that mac80211 package only supports station.
