Whoo! Thanks a lot for your hard work :)

Works for me on:
iwn0 at pci2 dev 0 function 0 "Intel WiFi Link 5100" rev 0x00: msi, MIMO 1T2R,
MoW, address 00:22:fa:d0:2f:a0
I have done some speed testing, but with inconclusive results. I used a
Macbook Pro with OS X as the other side, testing was done with iperf,
both machines connected to the same WiFi:
$ iperf -i 2 -c 192.168.178.54

I assume the low bandwidth is due to the two thick walls separating my
laptops and the access point. Everything else seems to be fine though.
I'll retry the speed measurement in a few days when I'm home for
christmas.

Haven't tested monitor mode so far, except for the IFF_PROMISC that
comes with the device being a trunkport. Works fine as far as I can see.
