Though it's my understanding that ath_rate_sample is the *preferred* algorithm. In the 6.1-RC man pages, *_onoe is not mentioned, while *_sample is.

device ath compile in kernel
I wanted to compile my wifi ath based card in the new kernel, but got some errors that I can't solve myself. After adding device ath I got compilation errors (ath_hal errors), so I put in device ath_hal (although there is no mention of it in the dox). The hal errors dissappeared, but now I got ath_rate errors while compiling. Adding device ath_rate did not work. ;-) Does not exist.. So, what exactly do I put in the kernel config when I want to compile support for my ath based wifi card? The wlan options compile in are: # Wireless NIC cards device wlan#802.11 support device wlan_wep#802.11 WEP support device wlan_ccmp #802.11 CCMP support device wlan_tkip #802.11 TKIP support device wlan_xauth #802.11 ext authenticatorsupport device wlan_acl#802.11 MAC ACL support How do I add my ath card ?

Loading it from /boot/loader.conf goes well, but I want it in the kernel. The ath(4) manpage says: NAME ath -- Atheros IEEE 802.11 wireless network driver SYNOPSIS To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file: device ath device ath_hal device ath_rate_sample device wlan Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5): if_ath_load=YES [...] You will also need the various wlan_xxx options you list above if you wish to use WPA and/or WEP. (Using WPA is strongly recommended.) -- Insert your favourite quote here.
