[PATCH 21/27] iwlagn: send RXON timing before associating

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

The PAN functionality requires us to send the
timing including a valid DTIM period to the
microcode before associating, so request this
data from mac80211 and send it to the device.
