Since you didn't reply I'm going to arrive to the obvious conclusion; we *already* connect to APs even if we don't receive any beacons, my patch simply makes it consistent for the drivers that set IEEE80211_HW_NEED_DTIM_BEFORE_ASSOC. Therefore all your reasons to not apply the patch have been dismissed. -- Felipe Contreras -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
