Comment:
We've done some more testing on 12 PCs with Atheros based 11g cards put to
ad-hoc mode at the same time. We have seen weird cell rotation without the
patch and proper cell merging after 30-60s (probably due to bad links
between some of the PCs) with the patch applied.
I've written a [http://www.secdev.org/projects/scapy/ Scapy] based [http
://www-ivs.cs.uni-magdeburg.de/EuK/mitarbeiter/glukas/ibss-merge.scapy
script to display the IBSS and beacons of all stations in a cell] to
better debug this issue. It is not perfect, but it might help you too :)
