applied both your patches and it works properly on iwn(4) here. before applying 'mode 11b' or 'mode 11g' on my laptop would not actually disconnect from my 5GHz-only AP, and the ifconfig output was something like "mode 11b (HT-MCS0 mode 11n)" - after, it works as expected. -- Lauri Tirkkonen | lotheac @ IRCnet
