[PATCH 1/3] cfg80211: Dynamic channel bandwidth changes in AP mode

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

 



This extends NL80211_CMD_SET_CHANNEL to allow dynamic channel bandwidth
changes in AP mode (including P2P GO) during a lifetime of the BSS. This
can be used to implement, e.g., HT 20/40 MHz co-existence rules on the
2.4 GHz band.
