Yeah, but I pulled this together in about five hours :) Wrt. the SSIDs, how many SSIDs do you think we should allow scanning for at the same time? Three? Four? Five? I was thinking something like that, sending out more probe requests is probably not too great an idea. I guess we would set the default to something we decide on in mac80211's alloc_hw and the driver gets to overwrite it if it has hw scan offload. johannes --=-ta4THADysiw8Eu0S/0jb Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Johannes Berg (powerbook) iQIcBAABAgAGBQJI04IiAAoJEKVg1VMiehFYBvwP/3/HyjJN7glUIWpTWQa1jZ1A ENWX2tLvj1NaR5UCFvIf2edjTiO3WNxMyxL0D6Roq8OQF9DU9EhbA6dvRaMfQTpF AkZIl/4V6VmNy9wbViVUWL/SsuGpQfkxY1QhXVFiERYogTYwY8/HIyfPao6hh62c WA7eU903/1GgTpK7Rwp+Wj+7Mj4Y2hIwhDrZg38E0Bvglm0mqLwL+OFoFuTsYWys in1DcQj36yXuqWXeZ3ozXDLHVsWksCzxWKyumulu9zYCIcwnD3yeX7KtkgBwYchx 1Lyk8kxgaruxRcZQf9Hf6kjsM3HBTBaCaOj4FUnrXJ7YuTpBw+tPKAfyGYxlJYMP cc3aCxf8Q/z4jTVscXBdIzH8PW12aijxDINxlKzxCJ5OuymlWa1e7sKfLWathOWb kHAMkA+MQEN2MOrMreLYFxWzV7U+ThpcunoMiiRguNpina5kp3XWWWH5FPXjnJQB imkkAwjxImEU/7vlV7aZkJv63R1+620dh08USRcJUXwOUf3CYF3LDUmnZ2VPcZVJ DZfym2Ol8BKOjvfRGKNAoyHvOwoGqHAVVxt4/mwyF4AQHwGxw1QUGX4Fowe5MK3I TPcJZ4dEXMWaPxBQpNbz88TnSvVJt2aCtWLDut29wrEnj+NULXtAGPCU6MSK87GD dIbW32wZ37d9lnMc3YN3 =5o8d -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-ta4THADysiw8Eu0S/0jb--
