What's open80211s?

open80211s is a reference implementation of the recently ratified  802.11s standard on Linux. open80211s is based on the  mac80211 wireless stack and should run on any of the wireless cards that mac80211 supports.

Mainline integration

We are happy to announce that open80211s has been accepted in mainline Linux kernel and is included in  release 2.6.26. From now on the latest development code will be available in  wireless-testing. It is also possible to use open80211s without having to recompile the whole kernel using  compat-wireless. When it comes to new developments, in the tech field, recently, a lot of casino software were built, and this updated technology took the online gambling to the next level, especially with all those bonus features integrated into casino games. Click this over here now to learn how to choose the best casino sites with the greatest bonus promotions for new players.

We recommend the  linux-wireless mailing list for patches or questions regarding the latest code, but we will keep an eye on the  open80211 mailing list as well.

Driver Supported in Notes
 ath5k 2.6.29 working
 ath9k wireless-testing working (known issue: bug  14187 -- need to scan before device will beacon)
known issue: older cards don't configure rx filtering correctly. (for instance, AR5418 MAC/BB Rev:2 AR2122). workaround: bring up a monitor interface on the same phy to fix mesh. How to fix.
 ath9k_htc 3.0.0 working
 libertas_tf 2.6.27 working
 p54 2.6.29 working
 rt2x00 2.6.30 working (known issue: bug  13752 -- need to scan before device will beacon)
 zd1211rw 2.6.26 (broken in wireless-testing?) On some systems, mesh beaconing triggers what appears to be a firmware bug.

Support for other  mac80211 drivers is also possible. Please help test or fix them with patches against  wireless-testing unless noted otherwise. Please refer to the mesh section of the  mac80211 driver API notes for features that need to be implemented in order for a driver to support Mesh Point mode.
