For example, when testing P2P, the mode is '8' (P2P_CLIENT) so the code accesses data beyond the bounds of the bss_modes[] array which causes the panic. Fix this by updating bss_modes[] to support the current list of modes and adding a check to prevent the out-of-bounds access from occuring in the future when more modes are added.
