2.9.45 and country channel definitions

Fri Aug 03, 2007 12:09 am

Hello,
i'm using country Romania and when installed 2.9.45 , the 5ghz band dissapeared. I think its because driver changes , but i need to go to the site and change the country to enter 5ghz band area.
It is a bug or do you have any suggestion how to avoid this ?
Thanks

Jan

Same for me. After upgrading to 2.9.45 the wireless card was disabled.
I was using this configuration:

0 R name="wlan1" mtu=1500 mac-address=00:15:6D:xxxxxxx arp=enabled
disable-running-check=no interface-type=Atheros AR5413
radio-name="00156Dxxxxxx" mode=ap-bridge ssid="xxxxx" area=""
frequency-mode=manual-txpower country=kuwait antenna-gain=0
frequency=5520 band=5ghz scan-list=default rate-set=default
supported-rates-a/g=6Mbps,9Mbps,12Mbps,18Mbps,24Mbps,36Mbps,48Mbps,
54Mbps
basic-rates-a/g=6Mbps max-station-count=2007 ack-timeout=dynamic
tx-power-mode=default noise-floor-threshold=default
periodic-calibration=default periodic-calibration-interval=60
burst-time=disabled dfs-mode=none antenna-mode=ant-a wds-mode=disabled
wds-default-bridge=none wds-default-cost=100 wds-cost-range=50-150
wds-ignore-ssid=no update-stats-interval=disabled
default-authentication=no default-forwarding=yes default-ap-tx-limit=0
default-client-tx-limit=0 proprietary-extensions=post-2.9.25
hide-ssid=no security-profile=default disconnect-timeout=3s
on-fail-retry-time=100ms preamble-mode=both compression=no
allow-sharedkey=no


The card is a XR5. after enabling de card configuration was reseted (during the upgrade, not by me) and i wasn´t able to select kuwait country any more.

Only solution for the moment, downgrade to 2.9.44

"ALBANIA"
"ALGERIA"
"BELARUS"
"BRAZIL"
"COSTA RICA"
"ECUADOR"
"EL SALVADOR"
"HONDURAS"
"ISRAEL"
"KAZAKHSTAN"
"KUWAIT"
"LEBANON"
"MACEDONIA"
"MALAYSIA"

That means these countries are not supporting 5G bands ? Is it possible to dump list of countries with frequencies that are allowed to use ? I missed also 5G turbo in country mode cyprus.
Thanks
