Hi all,
I just want to know if there is already support for simulating 
infrastructure WLANs in NS2 or nowadays, NS2 only supports ad-hoc WLANs.
All wireless examples in the NS2 package are based in ad-hoc WLANs, even 
in the wired-cum-wireless scenario, where communication between wireless 
nodes takes place directly between them, using an ad-hoc routing 
protocol (AODV,...) instead of using the base station or access point as 
intermediate node.
Moreover, these wireless nodes don't simulate assosiation/authentication 
messages to the base station  as is defined in the IEEE 802.11 standard. 
Beacons,...

I think it is a big drawback if NS2 doesn't have support to 
infrastructure WLANs. And before start to "implement" it in a simple 
version, I want to know if there is already some work in this area.
Thank you very much!
