Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: use only 1Mbps for basic rates in mesh
|
|
|
|
Mesh used to use the mandatory rates as basic rates, but we got
|
|
the calculation of mandatory rates wrong until some time ago.
|
|
Fix this this broke interoperability with older versions since
|
|
now more basic rates are required, and thus the MBSS isn't the
|
|
same and the network stops working.
|
|
|
|
Fix this by simply using only 1Mbps as the basic rate in 2.4GHz.
|
|
Since the changed mandatory rates only affected 2.4GHz, this is
|
|
all we need to make it work again.
|
|
