The "general flow" should be basically the same for all mac80211 drivers, so linux-wireless may be a better list to ask. Following links could be useful for you: http://linuxwireless.org/en/developers/Documentation/mac80211 http://linuxwireless.org/mac80211book/ Use of IOCTLs is considered obsolete, but you can find a lot of examples in the kernel and online. And in MadWifi too. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin
