[PATCH 5/7] p54: fix iwconfig txpower off

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

 



Disabling the receiver logic with P54_FILTER_TYPE_RX_DISABLED is not
supported by all firmwares. However we have an alternative: hibernation.
And the only side effect - so far - is a bit less power consumption. WIN!
