Here is something I haven't yet debugged and where I am a little
bit clueless.
Situation: libertas has associated to an AP successfully and I
run "iwconfig eth1 essid BLAHLABER". Everything is o.k. when I
run the same command while not associated.
What I don't know is why something is calling
get_wireless_stats() when setting the essid. This happens way
before a call into lbs_set_essid() (the WEXT handler), as can be
seen from the log below.
libertas enter: lbs_ret_80211_associate()
libertas assoc: associated to 00:13:19:80:da:30
##HS iwconfig eth1 essid BLAHLABER
libertas enter: lbs_get_wireless_stats()
libertas wext: signal level 0xd2
libertas wext: noise 0xa8
