Hi all,

When using iw to set the channel of mesh nodes working in ad hoc 
mode(with iw-tool installed), I got error:

# iw --debug dev wlan1 set channel 5

-- Debug: Received Message:
--------------------------   BEGIN NETLINK MESSAGE

     .nlmsg_len = 36
     .nlmsg_type = 2 <ERROR>

     .nlmsg_pid = 2734

     .nlmsg_pid = 2734

Does someone know the possible reason?

Many thanks in advance.

p.s. iwconfig could work for this.
