[PATCH 2/6] iwlagn: finer-grained HT disable

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

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

At least while debugging, a lot of people use
11n_disable=1 to disable HT completely. To be
able to figure out what parts of HT cause the
problems we see, make the parameter a bitmap,
allowing to disable all of HT and aggregation
(TX/RX) separately.
