Activation of autoscanning enables a a wifi client to select the best accesspoint based on rssi. This feature is useful in case you have multiple access points in your range and you do not want to stick the client on the first one it connected to. Especially when used with 802.11r this allows seamless transition to the optimal accesspoints. Setting the config value bgscan to -65 will tell wpa_supplicant to try to connect to an access points with better rssi. Example config: config wifi-iface 'default_radio1' option device 'radio1' option mode 'sta' option ssid 'openwrt' option encryption 'psk2' option key 'mykey' option network 'wlan' option bgscan '-65' The ipk sizes for mipsel_24kc change like this: old: wpad-openssl_2020-06-08-5a8b3662-4_mipsel_24kc.ipk 550133 new: wpad-openssl_2020-06-08-5a8b3662-5_mipsel_24kc.ipk 551961 Signed-off-by: André Valentin <avalentin@marcant.net> --- package/network/services/hostapd/files/hostapd.sh | 7 +++++++ package/network/services/hostapd/files/wpa_supplicant-full.config | 6 +++--- package/network/services/hostapd/Makefile | 1 +- 3 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-)
