However, I did not think much about it yet ;) I re-worked your patch, made it a bit more like my original one, and re-posted it. A quick test on ath9k with 128 stations seems to be positive, but I haven't added tracing yet to make sure it really skips going on/off channel when it's supposed to. If you get a chance to try it out, please let me know how it goes. Thanks, Ben -- Ben Greear Candela Technologies Inc http://www.candelatech.com
