Subject: [PATCH] libertas: Create sysfs entry for changing the mesh probe response limit
Date: Tue, 9 Dec 2008 13:23:45 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <493effb1.0610c00a.3f59.7990@mx.google.com> (raw)

This patch adds the ability to change the number of probe response retries sent
by the mesh interface.

In dense networks it is recommended to change this value to zero to reduce
traffic congestion.
