Update the frequency ranges and power limits according to the current Ecuadorian norm [1], corrected 5GHz maximum bandwidth since there are no legal restrictions in this subject. Note: 60GHz channels 1 to 3 are allowed without license for Point-to-Point links but they aren't for Point-to-Multipoint links so they were omitted in this patch.

Thanks for the patch! A few comments below.

It looks like 5150-5250 MHz also requires DFS.

5250-5350 and 5470-5725 MHz require TPC. Since Linux does not support TPC the power limits need to be reduced by 3 dBm, which puts them at 125 mW. I also don't see any DFS requirement for 5470-5725 MHz. Thanks, Seth
