#1992: Maybe wrong calculation of curRate
-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------
 Reporter:  anonymous              |             Type:  defect
   Status:  new                    |         Priority:  minor 
Component:  madwifi: 802.11 stack  |          Version:  v0.9.4
 Keywords:  curRate rate11b        |   Patch_attached:  0

 I tried to understadn the roaming mechansim, therefore I put some
 printks in ieeee80211_scan_sta.c function sta_roam_check.
 What I see was that curRate = ni->ni_rates.rs_rates[ni->ni_txrate] &
 IEEE80211_RATE_VAL;
 gives for example the 2 *rate instead of rate. For example 22 instead of
 11 or
 4 instead of 2. The mode I tested with was 802.11b. I don't know if this
 is also
 true for other modes, but changing roamRate with "iwpriv ath0 rate11b xx"
 makes more
 sense if it xx is not 2*xx for changing the Roaming-Level. Hope this helps
 you to
 get a better roaming.
