I can't manage to make hostapd start with your hostapd-Wifi6e.conf file...
I recommend that you stick with hostapd-Wifi6.conf
for now. Using it for WiFi 6 on the 5 GHz band is well tested at this point. Notice that hostapd-Wifi6e.conf
shows alpha
for status. I have not had time to investigate why I had problems with the 6 GHz band but I think it has to do with some capabilities of the wifi stack and maybe hostapd that needed to be put in place. Users have reported that 6 GHz band is working in some countries such as DE and FR. The rest of the EU is probably working also. It really seems to be related to the country.
If you have time, it would be nice to have a review on the AXM.
Hi,
I will try with Wifi6 configuration more deeply and update here, thanks. I did not see the alpha status for Wifi6e.
I'd be glad to help with a review on the AXM, could you please tell me which kind of tests will be helpful for you ?
All I can say for now is that it is really plug-and play, tested on Linux debian 12 (kernel 6.1.20) and on a raspberry pi 4 (latest stable kernel on raspbian). Also, tell me where you want me to put the review if not in this issue :)

Hello,
I can't manage to make hostapd start with your hostapd-Wifi6e.conf file (also tried wifi6 and 5) using brand new AWUS036AXM on a raspberry pi 4B. Here is the output :

Could you please help ? I can be available for more tests.
Thanks a lot, for this and for all your git, this is amazing job !
