Interesting. So are you saying that you're trying to disable the low(er) rates by not having the client systems advertise them, possibly because you can't manipulate the transmitter to not use them? But that seems a bit strange, since basic/mandatory rates always need to be supported? > > I think my comments to him apply to this too - see the thread at > > http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/143789 > > Thanks for the link, I didn't noticed Ben Grear's request. > According to the given patches, it seems the targeted goal is quite > similar. So your comments also apply on my demand. It seems that your implementation is closer to what I was suggesting though :) johannes -- 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
