Re: 6GHz only?

Hi James,

Thanks for the reply.

> The original reason for this was based on the behavior of a few cards I initially tested when implementing 6GHz support in IWD. The only way to utilize 6GHz was after scanning either 2.4/5ghz to allow the kernel to identify the country it was in, thereby allowing 6GHz operation.

Oh, I see.

> This may have changed now, and admittedly this restriction was implemented based on only a few hardware samples. If there is different hardware that doesn't need this, or things have changed in the kernel I have no problem removing this restrictions.

Unfortunately, I quickly discovered that 6GHz is not functional at all on my hardware [1] :/. I had hoped to coerce it to connect, but clearly that won't work. So you may have made the correct decision after all.
