From 63dd99e699f2d5e70bf3b3b28fa59fb2c8c640c7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Hante Meuleman Date: Sat, 15 Mar 2014 17:18:19 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: Improve scanning settings for connect. When connecting without specifying the channel it can take quite some time to connect. This is because not all parameters for the scan operation are set to optimized values. This patch changes these parameters resulting in a much faster connect in certain situations.
