[c-nsp] 1252ag backwards compatibility

[Rubens Kuhl Jr.]

Can it be prevented, i.e, configuring 1252 to only run 802.11n, even
in WDS mode ?
We are hoping that 802.11n can improve on Wi-Fi tradition of having
low pps rate, which is due to the sum of the 802.11b/a/g standard
and low speed processors on the devices.
