[PATCH] mwifiex: set different mac address for interfaces with same bss type

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

 



Multiple interfaces with same bss type could affect each other if
they are sharing the same mac address. In this patch, different
mac address is assigned to new interface which have same bss type
with exist interfaces.
