Subject: [PATCH 2/2 2.6.32.y] mac80211: fix supported rates IE if AP doesn't give us it's rates
Date: Mon,  7 Jun 2010 11:59:43 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1275904783-6563-2-git-send-email-sgruszka@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1275904783-6563-1-git-send-email-sgruszka@redhat.com>

If AP do not provide us supported rates before assiociation, send
all rates we are supporting instead of empty information element.
