Hi,
I want to disable the STA from scanning through the channel list once it
associates with an AP. HOw can I accomplish this? I tried setting bgscan
to 0, but that does not help.

Using wpa_supplicant, you can set the scan_freq parameter. This takes a list of frequencies to scan. I use this with the nl80211 driver, and I imagine it should work with madwifi as well.

Hi,
I want to disable the STA from scanning through the channel list once it
associates with an AP. HOw can I accomplish this? I tried setting bgscan
to 0, but that does not help. From the kernel logs, I still see the
client scanning through the list. I tried setting hostroaming to 2, but
the client then loses association immediately and is unable to
reassociate. Has anyone else faced this problem?
Thanks for your help and time
