#511: Beacon miss causing reassociation
-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------
Reporter: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Owner:
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: minor | Milestone: version 1.0.0 - first stable
release
Component: madwifi: driver | Version: trunk
Resolution: | Keywords: Beacon Miss
Patch_attached: 0 |

Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
The length of ''bintval'' field in ''struct ieee80211_scanparams'' is too
short what causes hardware beacon miss timers to be programmed with a
wrong value (modulo 256). This makes STA operation in BSSes with Beacon
Interval longer than 255ms completely unstable. The patch for this issue
is available at:

sp_intval_fix.diff.bz2?format=raw

There are also other sources of spurious Beacon misses, especially when
long Beacon Intervals are concerned. See another patch for details:
