Hi Adrian,
=> Is it a gradual thing? Ie, do you know when it starts to hang? Does it hang at 40? or gradually as you approach 40?
We do not know. What we do know is, 20 peers / neighbors work well.
Jason Toschlog in CC said that he observed similar issues with brcmfmac when peers reach 32 (16 peers work for him).
I guess I will setup 32 or 40 nodes here and try limit the max number of peers (at wpa_supplicant) for IBSS/adhoc.
Thanks again.

Hi,
Well, it sounds like something you need a 40 node test network for :)
I was wondering whether it was some kind of MAC bug that was being triggered because of so many units say, overflowing the keycache or something. But if it's software encryption then maybe not. I wish I could help more, but setting up a 40 node network to test is a big challenge. :)

As for association limits - I thought there was a maximum station parameter somewhere...
