Subject: How to set basic rates in mesh mode?

Hi all,

Is there a way to change the basic rates set in mesh mode ?
(so that broadcasts and ACKs could be sent faster)

- iw does not do this, and cfg80211 rejects NL80211_CMD_SET_BSS for mesh
interfaces, I cannot figure out another way ?

Regards
j.p. Tosoni
