Subject: [ath9k-devel] [PATCH 1/2] ath9k: validate for non-zero BSSID
Date: Wed, 7 Dec 2011 16:51:38 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1323256899-16453-1-git-send-email-mohammed@qca.qualcomm.com> (raw)

From: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan <mohammed@qca.qualcomm.com>

before concluding that the recieved beacon is for us, let us make sure
that the BSSID is non-zero. when I configured ad-hoc mode as creator and
left it for some time without joining I found we recieved few frames whose
BSSID is zero, which we concluded wrongly as 'my_beacons'
