[PATCH] [PATCH] mac80211: fix wrong 160/80+80 Mhz setting

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

 



Before this patch, STA's would set new width of 160/80+80 Mhz based on AP capability only.
This is wrong because STA may not support > 80Mhz BW.
Fix is to verify STA has 160/80+80 Mhz capability before increasing its width to > 80Mhz.
