From 5e0ba1f79b636d27a0ccf1eda2705d8ef9e7bdbd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Felix Fietkau Date: Tue, 6 Aug 2013 17:59:02 +0000 Subject: hostapd: Add an option to disable beaconing Add a patch for hostapd that introduces a config option "start_disabled" which can be used to bring up an AP interface with beaconing disabled. This is useful in a Repeater-AP setup where the Repeater AP has to start beaconing only after the WDS link has been established.
