[PATCH 2/2 bug fix] staging: vt6655: Fix loss of distant/weak access points on channel change.

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

 



If the asssocated access point is strong byBBVGACurrent will be adjusted
accordingly.

Users will nolonger see distant access points without taking down interface.

When changing channel reset byBBVGACurrent back to pDevice->abyBBVGA[0] for
max sensitivity.
