Subject: ar9280+802.11na+ath9k+kismet don't capture data packets

Hello!

The platform uses D-link DIR-825 Atheros AR7161, with two AR9280(802.11bgn and 802.11an)
kismet-2010-07-R1 is installed to OpenWrt Backfire Trunk. Used driver ath9k of compat-wireless-2011-04-19.
For tests I use D-Link Dir-825 AP and D-Link DWA-160. Connection speed is 300 Mbps at 36 channel.
Kismet captures PHY and Control packets, and don't capture the data packets.

Captures the driver ath9k data packets in the mode 802.11na? Can be said about this with 100% certainty? Checked it?
