Hi Nicolas
the register sets the slot time, it wont tell you backoff CW
there is a register AR5K_BACKOFF but for 5210
BTW
You will have to use a code like
ath5k_hw_reg_read(ah, register) & register_mask
in the ath5k driver to get the value. Then may need to divide the value by 40
(for norm
Thank you for you answer!

atheros chipsets I thought they use the same registers and I could get some
infos at ath5k list.
I think, from the answer
