[PATCH 34/45] iwlwifi: mvm: add extended dwell time

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

 



From: David Spinadel <david.spinadel@xxxxxxxxx>

When doing active scan on crowded channels we are likely to miss probe
responses due to collisions. To overcome this issue we use an extended
dwell time on channels 1, 6 and 11; this dwell time is set to 100.

In case of fragmented scan extended dwell time is the maximum out of
channel time - 44 msec. Fragmented active scan will be addressed later.

Extended dwell time isn't used in sched scan or p2p find.
