Otherwise, Dave Young is moving the list elsewhere and then we can properly define this in radiotap rather than going with some other set. 0x80 in flags (not rate) is used to indicate short-GI in wireshark, and it's all very confusing... I'd rather see a new "HT rate" field added to radiotap. > I did not want to think about anything for IBSS.. ;-) One should just > probe the other STA if you want to learn what it can do.. Right. Who cares about IBSS :) johannes
