This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled rtlwifi: rtl8192de: Fix incorrect signal strength for unassociated AP to the linux-3.8.y-queue branch of the 3.8.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.8.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.8.13.14. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.8.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From c431fbeaba278b3727f038a58ed9d15bd98acb47 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Larry Finger <Larry.Finger@lwfinger.net> Date: Tue, 5 Nov 2013 15:15:30 -0600 Subject: rtlwifi: rtl8192de: Fix incorrect signal strength for unassociated AP commit 3545f3d5f4af715c914394123ce7725a9cf0a1c4 upstream. The routine that processes received frames was returning the RSSI value for the signal strength; however, that value is available only for associated APs. As a result, the strength was the absurd value of 10 dBm. As a result, scans return incorrect values for the strength, which causes unwanted attempts to roam.
