Hi,

(Apologies if this is the wrong list, please point me at the right one if you know)

I run 12-CURRENT (r334442) on a Thinkpad X230. This machine has an Intel
Centrino Advanced N 6205. But freebsd only uses in in 11g mode. When I
try to scan, it won't even display 5GHz aps.

>From reading man pages, I can see that iwn(4) supports 11n. Is it
really supprted?  What can I do to enable 11n?


Here are my configs

/etc/rc.conf
wlans_iwn0="wlan0"
ifconfig_wlan0="ssid SSID WPA SYNCDHCP"


/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
