The files ieee80211_tx.c in the directories drivers/staging/rtl8192su/ieee80211 and drivers/staging/rtl8192e/ieee80211 both contain the following code in the function ieee80211_query_protectionmode: if (ieee->mode == IW_MODE_MASTER) goto NO_PROTECTION; Elsewhere in these files when there is a comparison against an IW_MODE value, the field that is compared is iw_mode. Should that be the case here as well? thanks, julia -- 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
