Why are we reflecting packets back to the originator anyway? Could it not be
excluded?
Btw. once we are bit

Looks like mac80211 on an STA does that for frames with a
multicast destination (to prevent getting the own multicast
packets echo'd back once the
Hi Steven,
Thanks for the feedback.

PS: Out of curiousity, can someone with deeper knowledge into 802.11
tell me, when an STA sends a multicast packet to its master which
then rebroadcasts it at e.g. 1MBit/s, how does the originating STA
know that its a rebroadcast of its own frame and refrain from
forwarding it internally?
Hi Linus,
one of these two kernel patches break IPv6 over WiFi completely.
https://dev.openwrt.org/changeset/46719 works
https://dev.openwrt.org/changeset/46723 is broken with default settings,
but works when setting option igmp_snooping 0.
symptoms are:
IPv6: wlan0: IPv6 duplicate address
This reverts commit a080e8e1943156168913d0353a2e99d1151102aa.
It did not fix the problem but just hid some symptom. The real issue was

multicast-to-unicast feature. A recent netifd which isolates IGMP/MLD
reports between STAs by
