If we're just roaming we could send them out via the next AP, but it's hard to know, and since it's working let's not touch it for now. How exactly are you triggering that "unauthorized port" message? I can't seem to reproduce to see if stopping the queue helps, but I'm fairly sure, try the patch below that fixes this. johannes --- everything.orig/net/mac80211/mlme.c 2008-09-08 10:54:28.000000000 +0200 +++ everything/net/mac80211/mlme.c 2008-09-08 10:57:30.000000000 +0200 @@ -574,6 +574,7 @@ static void ieee80211_set_associated(str sdata->bss_conf.assoc = 1; ieee80211_bss_info_change_notify(sdata, changed); + netif_tx_start_all_queues(sdata->dev); netif_carrier_on(sdata->dev); ieee80211_sta_send_apinfo(sdata, ifsta); @@ -995,6 +996,7 @@ static void ieee80211_set_disassoc(struc ifsta->assoc_scan_tries = 0; ifsta->assoc_tries = 0; + netif_tx_stop_all_queues(sdata->dev); netif_carrier_off(sdata->dev); ieee80211_sta_tear_down_BA_sessions(sdata, sta->addr); @@ -3413,6 +3415,7 @@ static void ieee80211_sta_reset_auth(str ifsta->direct_probe_tries = 0; ifsta->auth_tries = 0; ifsta->assoc_tries = 0; + netif_tx_stop_all_queues(sdata->dev); netif_carrier_off(sdata->dev); } -- 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
