Superchannel not working version 4.5

Wed Feb 10, 2010 3:57 pm

Good day,

I have two wireless highsites giving signal problems and both running the latest version 4.5. I have enabled superchannel on both sides but station side is not connecting until i change back to normal.

Unless if I am missing something the Wiki is not very detailed and my one side is configured like this:
1    name="SiteA" mtu=1500 mac-address=00:0C:42:2B:3C:C1 
      arp=enabled interface-type=Atheros AR5413 mode=ap-bridge 
      ssid="SiteA" frequency=4920 band=5ghz 
      scan-list=default antenna-mode=ant-a wds-mode=disabled 
      wds-default-bridge=none wds-ignore-ssid=no default-authentication=yes 
      default-forwarding=no default-ap-tx-limit=0 default-client-tx-limit=0 
      hide-ssid=no security-profile=default compression=no 
Please help!!

scan-list=default
there is your problem. scan list must contain the frequencies that you are now using. "default" doesn't work because you are not using default anymore

Thanks for quick reply. Is there a wiki or how to document that can give me finer instructions how to set up superchannel correctly?

Either you specify the custom frequencies you are going to use in the scan-list field,
or you can specify ALMOST them all(in a 20mhz spacing):
4920,4940,4960,4980,5000,5020,5040,5060,5080,5100,5120,5140,5160,5180,5200,5220,5240,5260,5280,5300,5320,5340,5360,5380,5400,5420,5440,5460,5480,5500,5520,5540,5560,5580,5600,5620,5640,5660,5680,5700,5720,5740,5760,5780,5800,5820,5840,5860,5880,5900
In the second choice, the client has a slower association, because it has to scan all the available frequencies

/interface wireless set wlan1 scan-list=5500,6000
in this way, specify all frequencies in the client that the AP will use
