[PATCH v2 09/10] rt2800: use TXOP_BACKOFF for probe frames

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

 



Even if we do not set AMPDU bit in TXWI, device still can aggregate
frame and send it with rate not corresponding to requested. That mean
we can do not sent probe frames with requested rate. To prevent that
use TXOP_BACKOFF for probe frames.
