How are you doing such a change? I was assuming that the BSS would cease to exist if it was reconfigured in such a way. > I have tried your DISABLE_BW_TRACK patch, that helps making the > connection but it doesn't update the chipset causing issues. Well, that was clearly going to happen. > Ideally we should be able to handle all the config changes right? Not sure. How does this config change work? I'd have expected the AP to stop beaconing and kick everyone out if you actually reconfigured it to no longer have VHT since then it can't do VHT rates any more either according to the new config? What exactly are you doing, and how does the AP behave, and what do you expect to happen? johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
