From 8e30bc55de98c000b0b836cb42525c82f605f191 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Wed, 22 Apr 2009 17:45:38 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] nl80211: allow configuring IBSS beacon interval Make the JOIN_IBSS command look at the beacon interval attribute to see if the user requested a specific beacon interval, if not default to 100 TU (wext too).
