Date: Thu, 21 Oct 2010 14:17:52 -0200 Message-ID: Subject: Modifying the driver iwlwifi To: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Sender: linux-wireless-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: Hi, I'm a masters student of Automation and Systems Engineering at Federal University of Santa Catarina in Brazil. I'd like to know if it is possible to modify the implementation of iwlwifi because I need to decrease the time of association between the client and the AP. I'd like to implement something in the same way like I read in an article, project QuickWifi. Its basic idea is that a client doesn't wait each response to go to the next step, so just do: AUTH REQ -> ASSOC REQ -> DHCP DISC -> DHCP REQ -> ARP QUERY and a PING THROUGH to verify that an end-to-end connection is available. I need this to my work, it will be used for the communication between a moving vehicle and a fixed point on the street. Thank you.
