[PATCHv2 26/82] staging: brcm80211: brcmfmac: Connect request made robust

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

 



From: Sukesh Srikakula <sukeshs@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Connect request made robust by passing broadcast bssid to the
FW in SET_SSID request. This fix helps STA to connect
to any available AP in ESS instead of sticking to one
unresponsive AP.
