While the firmware was reset association state wasn't changed and I could, for example, run iperf tests while firmware was resetting without userspace noticing anything (expect a slight decreare of throughput of course). This might depend on firmware implementation, but at least with softmac devices it shouldn't be a problem. -- Kalle Valo -- 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
