mac-address ( read-only: MAC address ) - MAC address of the transmitting wireless card in the
set
mtu ( integer : 0 ..1600 ; default: 1500 ) - Maximum Transmission Unit
name ( name ) - reference name of the interface
rates-a/g ( multiple choice: 6Mbps, 9Mbps, 12Mbps, 18Mbps, 24Mbps, 36Mbps, 48Mbps, 54Mbps
) - rates to be supported in 802.11a or 802.11g standard
rates-b ( multiple choice: 1Mbps, 2Mbps, 5.5Mbps, 11Mbps ) - rates to be supported in 802.11b
standard
remote-mac ( MAC address ; default: 00:00:00:00:00:00 ) - which MAC address to connect to
(this would be the remote receiver card's MAC address)
rx-band - operating band of the receiving radio
• 2.4ghz-b - IEEE 802.11b
• 2.4ghz-g - IEEE 802.11g
• 2.4ghz-g-turbo - IEEE 802.11g in Atheros proprietary turbo mode (up to 108Mbit)
• 5ghz - IEEE 802.11a up to 54 Mbit
• 5ghz-turbo - IEEE 802.11a in Atheros proprietary turbo mode (up to 108Mbit)
rx-frequency ( integer ; default: 5320 ) - Frequency to use for receiving frames
rx-radio ( name ) - which radio should be used for receiving frames
tx-band - operating band of the transmitting radio
• 2.4ghz-b - IEEE 802.11b
• 2.4ghz-g - IEEE 802.11g
• 2.4ghz-g-turbo - IEEE 802.11g in Atheros proprietary turbo mode (up to 108Mbit)
• 5ghz - IEEE 802.11a up to 54 Mbit
• 5ghz-turbo - IEEE 802.11a in Atheros proprietary turbo mode (up to 108Mbit)
tx-frequency ( integer ; default: 5180 ) - Frequency to use for transmitting frames
tx-radio ( name ) - which radio should be used for transmitting frames
Notes
WDS cannot be used on Nstreme-dual links.
The difference between tx-freq and rx-freq should be about 200MHz (more is recommended)
because of the interference that may occur!
You can use different bands for rx and tx links. For example, transmit in 2.4ghz-g-turbo and
receive data, using 2.4ghz-b band.
Example
To enable the nstreme2 protocol on a router:
1. Having two Atheros AR5212 based cards which are not used for anything else, to group them
into a nstreme interface, switch both of them into nstreme-dual-slave mode:
