I did mean those devices. Adding a reg notifier hook for iwlwifi seems a little odd, given that cfg80211 is supposed to always honour the flags (which it copies to orig_flags for that purpose). But I don't see why ath couldn't do this: * do _not_ set the passive/no-ibss flags in flags (orig_flags) * in the reg notifier, always set the passive/no-ibss flag into 'flags' unless a beacon was noticed on that channel. What am I missing? johannes
