IPAD mini2 version is 7.1.1. WR842N wifi is working in BGN mixed, channel and bandwith auto. IPAD mini2 send cooee setup packets. WICED can't capture any cooee packets. I use MACBook Air to capture these cooee packet. Plase check the attachment file 43362-cannot-monitor-11n.pcapng. You can open this file by wireshark. From the captured packets, data rate is 144.4 Mbps. I checked on IEEE 802.11n-2009 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, this data rate means MCS index 15, with 2 spatial streams, HT20, modulation type is 64-QAM. The cooee document say wifi must working in bgn mode, 1x1 and 20Mhz. Does that mean WICED can't capture these type of packets? Is it possible to configure 43362 to capture these packets? Or is there any method to configure IOS and Android send wifi packet in 1x1 mode?

Thanks

Yes. Believe you would need a 2x2 device for this.

There are more and more smart phone using 2x2 wifi chip. Will broadcom provide a 2x2 device for WICED in the feature? Or provide a new easy setup method to support 2x2 smart phone?
