Hi all,
I would be very grateful if people can advise on the features present
in Intels 3x3 MIMO (450Mbps) chipsets, namely (Ultimate N WiFi Link
5300 and 6300 NICs) and the features that are currently supported by
the iwlwifi/iwlang Linux driver.
e.g. the output of "iw list" command of the cards would be very helpful.
For example does it support:
1) Configuring as an AP (via hostapd or otherwise).
2) STBC, 3) Greenfield, 4) Short gaurd interval, 4) Low-density parity
check (LDPC) encoding, 5) Maximum likelihood demodulation (MLD) and
MRC, 6) Transmit beamforming (TxBF), 7) Ability to control antenna-
power/chain mask etc,
8) Support for HT IBSS/ad hoc speeds (Alexander's patch).
9) Per-Packet. Information (PPI) capturing
Also to those who have tested these intel NICs, can you please provide
a purchase recommendation as I intend to use it to run parameter
specific tests (one at a time) via install these on around 5 laptops
and similar platforms.
Thank you all very much
