   Hi,

   tried with 6:ht/20 but performance is horrible. The machine running
hostapd reports this http://pastebin.com/aQD8Y2WD (still says 11g,
wouldn't it report 11n?). In the client I see this:
http://pastebin.com/hiDtZbRV

   Running iperf between them reports about 6Mbit/s (which is quite low).

   Am I missing something?

   Greets,

   Gustau
