I haven't had a chance to run hostapd again, been far too busy. As it stands, I'm not sure when I can possibly get to that. > > rt2500pci filter_flags: 2 > > rt2500pci MAC changed: 00:0c:f6:14:05:19 >=20 > Packet filter flags of 2 sounds a bit restrictive. >=20 > Johannes, for Master mode shouldn't the following flags be set as well: > FIF_PROMISC_IN_BSS > FIF_CONTROL >=20 > Or should the driver enable those automatically when master mode is enabl= ed? The driver most definitely shouldn't do anything, but neither of those flags should be needed. In a BSS, all frames from the stations are addressed to the BSS-MAC, i.e. to the AP, so the regular MAC filter should allow them through without any sort of promisc. And control frames aren't needed, those are just ack/cts/... frames. johannes --=-pFz1P1TWPnnr76hp5pB/ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Johannes Berg (powerbook) iQIVAwUAR/DSi6Vg1VMiehFYAQJXOg//S+GCQLy8YL0Gd5k61V27AuHW/4ZAp+An k+qgKPSMwyMwOg3vW5c/9LTmCuamUVTLi8ZbMH0Qi15d387TPekVRWDc6cRLMdar dWOiXEtXtVpxpaUKF89e55WPz4LOgRCDzYNDUgQ3xqUDa6t2imeDjYpDFtd1MfG8 EQ0yeR3LoMHjr+vsOZRJ39x0FJUwwr7MLkJJHQOJWcdyT18YT+mIx5L+84zjIUf5 bdViHvRVTNCN1eGqt/Nm1CHFb6hEyeXZvm7vVj2EX76IUm48iFCTld0gnfNTKUtL Xv+asBGJOjW8waqkW6sSqrKjfo/DQVPX3WKB+1J01eEGATkl2PFmQX25Ud0XGCAB P5ralXVC317JBD8bMqMCPVQ32/K3KnnFtxsHyDPx1Jq6OkkkEJpGo4rM+vC/21iS cxk55OSK2G9WvFfRvtbHHaUSiXSzfqFgPngIm6UgLjo95wtJHnnP+SdgC7R+14H4 TpWewqQaHaIllPzxWZQwAKYdN7Kum23bS9UlvA93m2n1/ZToI/W9J1Dv7yIKW3+1 Oepr8Re1wX7TdeyE1uAemlLyqVNSf96RL7+rEN8JDyZuUbBcozWsLJa84j6frzM0 vVxwnW+9Xt7gIIfBdlIGzzdQ7sLkmqkhN0n19Mu+n40SDE6Q36TUzl9mFIL2MgBG MupS0EeHpUw= =Ej9h -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-pFz1P1TWPnnr76hp5pB/--
