From 3432f9233704a66e6067944339a311744243707d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eliad Peller Date: Sun, 30 Oct 2011 15:41:59 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: use min rate as basic rate for buggy APs Some buggy APs (and even P2P_GO) don't advertise their basic rates in the association response. In such case, use the min supported rate as the basic rate. Reported-by: Pontus Fuchs Signed-off-by: Eliad Peller Signed-off-by: John W.
