[PATCH] libertas: problems setting wpa keys

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

 



The 88w8385 chip, using SDIO interface and firmware release 5.0.11p0,
has problems when both unicast and multicast WPA keys are set in one
command. This patch ensures the keys are set independently.
