[PATCH] iwlwifi: provide frequency to radiotap monitor not channel index

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Andy Green <andy@xxxxxxxxxxx>

iwlwifi wrongly provides the channel index to the radiotap header
on Monitor mode. This results in tcpdump showing "6MHz" for example.

This patch arranges to send the frequency in MHz instead eg, 2437MHz
