[ar71xx] fix dir-825-b1 default network config after r21905
[openwrt.git] / package / madwifi / patches / 361-bmiss_handling.patch
1 Improve the beacon miss handling. Instead of just dropping the connection,
2 send a directed probe request to the AP to see if it's still responding.
3 Schedule a software beacon miss timer in this case, which adds a timeout
4 for the APs probe response.
