From 453a3fb9bd1fa50cdf4b69b9936c69497e870774 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ivo van Doorn Date: Sun, 28 Oct 2007 14:39:52 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] rt2x00: Block adhoc & master mode rt2x00 is broken when it comes down to adhoc and master mode. The main problem is the beaconing, which is completely failing. Untill a solution has been found, both beacon requiring modes must be disabled to prevent numerous bug reports.
