[PATCH 3/3] ath5k: fix slot time handling

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

 



Set the slot time based on the mac80211 short slot vs long slot setting
instead of just forcing long slot for all CCK-enabled channels.
This slightly improves 802.11g mode performance in in my tests.
