[PATCH] wifi: mac80211: make 4addr null frames using min_rate for WDS

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

 



WDS needs 4addr packets to trigger AP for wlan0.sta creation.
However, the 4addr null frame is sent at a high rate
so that AP can't receive it.
This PATCHES switches to use min_rate.
