      Thanks Jimp for the answer,

      I'll verify, but it sounds very strange because it's a mikrotik mini-pci and when is fitted in the routerboard can support 5 and 10 MHz. So it shouldn't a hw limitation. Anywhere I'll have a look in to this command to find some more information.

      thanks again

        But is the mikrotik board running FreeBSD?

        It may also be a driver limitation.

          Hi Jimp,

          sorry for my late answer but I was outside for business trip. Pf is running on Alix board and only the mini-pci comes from mikrotik R52. What I get from ifconfig -m is here below, but I don't see anythyng about half and quarter mode:

          What do you think about the output? It seems like not supported!!!!

            Looks like I was wrong about it being listed there. It should be able to be specified along with the channel in the same way:

            From ifconfig(8):

            channel number
                        Set a single desired channel.  Channels range from 1 to 255, but
                        the exact selection available depends on the region your adaptor
                        was manufactured for.  Setting the channel to any, or - will
                        clear any desired channel and, if the device is marked up, force
                        a scan for a channel to operate on.  Alternatively the frequency,
                        in megahertz, may be specified instead of the channel number.

            When there are several ways to use a channel the channel num-
                        ber/frequency may be appended with attributes to clarify.  For
                        example, if a device is capable of operating on channel 6 with
                        802.11n and 802.11g then one can specify that g-only use should
                        be used by specifying 6:g''.  Similarly the channel width can             be specified by appending it with /''; e.g. 6/40'' specifies             a 40MHz wide channel, These attributes can be combined as in:             6:ht/40''.  The full set of flags specified following a `:''
                        are: a (802.11a), b (802.11b), d (Atheros Dynamic Turbo mode), g
                        (802.11g), h or n (802.11n aka HT), s (Atheros Static Turbo
                        mode), and t (Atheros Dynamic Turbo mode, or appended to st''             and dt'').  The full set of channel widths following a '/' are:
                        5 (5MHz aka quarter-rate channel), 10 (10MHz aka half-rate chan-
                        nel), 20 (20MHz mostly for use in specifying ht20), and 40 (40MHz
                        mostly for use in specifying ht40), In addition, a 40MHz HT chan-
                        nel specification may include the location of the extension chan-
                        nel by appending +'' or -'' for above and below, respec-
                        tively; e.g. ``2437:ht/40+'' specifies 40MHz wide HT operation
                        with the center channel at frequency 2437 and the extension chan-
                        nel above.

              It doesn't show for me, but you can also look at:

              ifconfig ath0_wlan0 list chan

              I haven't tried to set the lower widths by hand though.

                When I try to setup a smaller chennel bandwidth, I get this message (even with 10MHz )

                ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ath0 channel 40/5
                ifconfig: unknown/undefined channel number 40 flags 0x8000

                Really I don't know if it's a pfsense driver limitation or are not supported by this card.
                Regards

                  Try using 40:a/5

                    Hi Jimp,

                    really thanks for your help, but executing the

                    ifconfig wlan0 create wlandev ath0 channel 40:a/5

                    I get the following error
                    ifconfig: unknown/undefined channel number 40 flags 0x8140

                    I don't know if it's some bug or limitation related to the driver included in the freebsd 8.x

                    regards

                      If the variations with 20 and 40 work for width, but 5/10 do not, then I'd guess it's a driver limitation for that card

                        Hi Jimp,

                        I was guessing the same thing. From your experience (I don't know if you have tested many wifi cards), can you suggest me one mini-pci card supporting 5 and 10 MHz?

                        Thanks for your help

                          To be honest, I didn't even know it was an option until you mentioned it, so I have no more ideas.
