This adds support for 802.11n data rates on the mesh.
This should improve dataspeeds across the board
MIMO devices like Rocket and NanoStation should be able to use dual chains which allows diverse data transmission on each chain increasing throughput
MCS data rates in theory should cut through noise better than legacy modulation and have higher speeds on each step which should allow overall higher datarate between nodes.
Required for 900mhz devices to be supported due to band size.
This can also be useful for allowing more devices to fit into the same amount of RF space as nodes may often not need full 20mhz wide channels.
2.4ghz while using standard BBHN SSID is restricted to 20mhz for compatibility.
ref BBHN->ticket:50
NOTE: This patch requires a kernel upgrade to fully work.
Adds new value wifi_country.
Country HX is being chosen for HAM band use.
Country selection is needed to help the device stay withing regulatory domain for worldwide use.
ref BBHN->ticket:29
Includes removing files that are provided by packages instead
of being embedded as binaries.
Changes made for UBNT hardware AND for newer base openwrt (Backfire)
