Thanks, Jeff. 71c11fb57b924c160297ccd9e1761db598d00ac2 is first bad commit commit 71c11fb57b924c160297ccd9e1761db598d00ac2 Author: Johannes Berg Date: Tue Oct 28 18:29:48 2008 +0100 b43/legacy: remove SSID code The SSID programmed into the device is used by the ucode only to reply to probe requests, a functionality we disable anyway because it doesn't fit with the mac80211/hostapd programming model. Therefore, it isn't useful to program the SSID into device. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: John W.
