You won't do it on an R7000, I don't think that will get ported over to Broadcom. I don't think the drivers support it and all we would need is yet another thing to break Broadcom images, lol. Unless there is some magic command-line voodoo I am not aware of. _________________ "Life is but a fleeting moment, a vapor that vanishes quickly; All is vanity"

The actual task is trying to prove a WiFi channel is encrypted. Initial attempt was to use Kali and AirMon but could not see the signal at all. The Manufacturer of the hardware has told us that the equipment is running on a 1/4 channel (5MHz) so I was thinking that the newer cards were just ignoring that signal because its configuration was not a normal WiFi channel configuration.
That is what lead me to the original question about setting the 7000 to operate in a 1/4 channel so I could switch back and forth just to test my theory.
Do any of you know of a WiFi card that can be set to look for a signal on a 1/4 channel?
I only know of that feature existing on R7800, R7500v2, EA8500 or R9000.
Is it available on the R7800? That was one of the things I was hoping to play with when I purchased one recently, but do not see 10 or 5 MHz as options under Channel Width.
Does the availability of this option depend on how other parameters are configured?
