Subject: [PATCH 0/3] Fix incorrect returned signal strengths
Date: Tue, 5 Nov 2013 15:15:27 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1383686130-5113-1-git-send-email-Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> (raw)
In rtl8192se, rtl8192cu, and rtl8192du, the routines that process the
received frames get the signal strength from the RSSI value. Unfortunately,
that value is non-zero only if the interface is associated with the AP. As
a result, scans return incorrect values for the strength, which causes
unwanted attempts to roam.
