The reason for this is that it's pointless to do anything else - the station will try to communicate with us since there's no protocol that allows rejecting the link. We therefore don't fail here, and try to communicate with the station anyway - that might end up with not having proper rate scaling etc. but is still better. johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
