To me trying to maintain association during suspend sounds wrong. What do we gain from that? In my opinion it's better to disassociate during suspend and let user space reassociate during resume. That way no need to do any special hacks and functionality is the same with all APs. I'm sure I'm missing a lot here, but this is my first impression. -- 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
