The bundesnetzagentur has assigned WiFi 6E frequencies for germany you
this is the
publication of that change:
https://www.bundesnetzagentur.de/SharedDocs/Downloads/DE/Sachgebiete/Telekommunikation/Unternehmen_Institutionen/Frequenzen/Allgemeinzuteilungen/MobilfunkDectWlanCBFunk/vfg552021WLAN6GHz.pdf?__blob=publicationFile&v=3

Following frequencies have been assigned for general use:
5945 - 6425 Mhz
maximum (200 mW)
No outdoor usage is allowed for 200mW

For "very low power devices" outdoor usage
is allowed, but only with (25 mW)
same frequency range 5945 - 6425

There is no DFS requirement.

Best regards,
Timo

This all matches with my reading of a translated version of the
document. Do you plan to send a patch to add this range? If not, I can
send one.

Thanks,

Unfortunately the kernel doesn't support multiple rules for a given
range with differing flags. Currently it is necessary to specify either
the indoor power limit with NO-OUTDOOR or the outdoor power limit, but
not both.

Any updates on this Seth?
can we just add the "NO-OUTDOOR" line then as i did in my updated
patch, if the kernel does not support overlapping / identical
frequency ranges with different power limits?

Best regards,
Timo
