emily | I have to imagine the C in FR812C is load-bearing there | 10:51:17 |
emily | especially if it was "upcoming" less than a week ago | 10:51:29 |
emily | wonder how much that media converter will cost though | 10:51:55 |
emily | to be fair it doesn't say C on the actual module. still it would seem surprising to me if the fancy new-generation silicon is still limited to 30 m | 10:52:35 |

magic_rb | can someone quickly share their latest hostapd config | 10:35:54 |
matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Yes, these days I'm just using k900's hostapd verbatim | 10:36:04 |
magic_rb | please share :> | 10:36:14 |
matthewcroughan - nix.zone | https://gitlab.com/K900/nix/-/blob/master/machines/bananya/hostapd.nix?ref_type=heads | 10:36:32 |
magic_rb | youre also on 40 tho | 10:36:35 |
K900 | This is probably regulatory | 10:37:00 |
K900 | channel 36 (5180 MHz), width: 160 MHz, center1: 5250 MHz
| 10:37:36 |
K900 | Is what I'm getting with RU regdomain | 10:37:40 |
K900 | And
channel 1 (5955 MHz), width: 160 MHz, center1: 6025 MHz
| 10:37:49 |
K900 | On 6G | 10:37:50 |
matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I don't get better performance from other regdomains anyway | 10:37:57 |
magic_rb | im in the nl, is there a way to check what are thi limits in my reg domain | 10:38:11 |
K900 | Just set countryCode = "NL" | 10:47:26 |
K900 | And hostapd will figure it out | 10:47:34 |
K900 | And you can use iw reg get to check | 10:47:41 |
