You're right - next time one of my immediate neighbors are installing
OpenWRT (at the same time), we may run into this...

I'm not meaning to argue, but is this a "real world" occurance..  I
was merely trying to point out that it shoul dnot be a priority.  Not
that it coule NEVER happen, because I think everyone knows that if the
planets and sun are all aligned properly, it could happen - just like
we'll all be dead in 2012 (j/k)..Anyway..  I respect everyone's
opinion here..  I just think (although it may make the mac80211 stack
better) that it is not aa forerunner for anything that needs
addressing as far as linux wireless goes...  This may make aircrack
better though as I am suspecting :)
