Hello, Regarding zd1211 working as an access point in master mode: 1) Searching for it shows that zd1211 chips do support acting as an access point (master mode). Two examples: 1.1) In the link below it says: "ZD1211 can operate in the mode of station and access point." http://linux.softpedia.com/get/System/Hardware/ZD1211-Driver-12712.shtml 2) I saw that in the zd1201 driver there is an access point parameter to the module ; in drivers/net/wireless/zd1201.c, we have: module_param(ap, int, 0). - Can you please elaborate a bit about how can we know whether a device support or does not support multicast buffering ? - Could it be that some zd1211 chipsets do support multicast buffering, and some do not ?
