Why would one vif be off-channel, and the other be on-channel? That makes no sense, off-channel is a global state. My thinking here right now is that mac80211-based off-channel and scanning will only be supported for devices that don't implement multi-channel, since all others really need to do the channel scheduling themselves. johannes
