[PATCH V2] ath6kl: Enable force foreground scan in connected state

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

 



This was disabled beacause there was a network stall
issue when scan is issued. This issue does not happen
with the new firmware (3.1.1.609), enable it back.
