Hi,

FWI: I believe this whole regulatory framework is pretty broken in 2.6.34
If I associate with a 802.11g accesspoint with one NIC , I'm not allowed
to use 802.11a on my other NIC at all.

[   23.352168] wlan0: associated
[   23.355993] ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): wlan0: link becomes ready
[   23.375106] cfg80211: Calling CRDA for country: DE
[   23.412542] cfg80211: Current regulatory domain updated by AP to: DE
[   23.431728]     (start_freq - end_freq @ bandwidth),
(max_antenna_gain, max_eirp)
[   23.454319]     (2402000 KHz - 2482000 KHz @ 40000 KHz), (N/A, 1800 mBm)

# iw reg get
country 98:
    (2402 - 2482 @ 40), (N/A, 18)

???

Best regards,
Arnd
