Yes, we definitely need the right BSS struct when the driver signals that it connected, but we also need the same information when it roamed for example. Does it really make sense to scan after the fact, instead of asking the driver to provide the information? This is a genuine question -- I can see value in this if more than one driver needs it, but if the devices can just provide BSS information right before the connected call that would be a lot simpler here. johannes
