Subject: [PATCH] Revert "rt2800: use TXOP_BACKOFF for probe frames"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This reverts commit fb47ada8dc3c30c8e7b415da155742b49536c61e.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In some situations when we set TXOP_BACKOFF, the probe frame is
|
||||||
|
not sent at all. What it worse then sending probe frame as part
|
||||||
|
of AMPDU and can degrade 11n performance to 11g rates.
