[PATCH] mac80211: allow disable power save in mesh

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

 



Allow mesh interface to disable the power save which is by default
turn on in certain chipset. Testing with 2 units of ZCN-1523H-5-16
featuring AR9280 chipset which have power save enabled by default.
Constant reset if the average signal of the peer mesh STA is below
-80 dBm and power save is enabled.
