From 8eab7b4708b5ef4701ecbe5d659f99743b77b668 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Juuso Oikarinen Date: Fri, 24 Sep 2010 03:10:11 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] wl1271: Increase connection reliability This patch improves connection reliability by choosing the lowest basic rate for null-func frames (which increases their range, as the firmware does not do rate fall-back for null-func frames.) Also, increase the PSM entry retry-counter.
