From this page, I saw that wpa_supplicant supports 802.11r (Fast BSS transition: establish security/QoS to an AP before making the transition). I assume that mac80211 doesn't support this yet? >From the wikipedia page about this I also found 802.11k (Radio Resource management - AP detects that station is moving away, AP informs station, Station asks AP for list of stations and uses this to select another station). Does anybody know an AP with 802.11k support?
