We have a testing firmware that handles them (and that works perfectly on WRT54GL): I hope we can release it soon. Wow, that's great! If you need more testing, I'm willing to do some.

Really hope you will manage to release that soon :) -- RafaÅ -- 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
