Probe Response packets sometimes delayed by 200ms

Hi all, We're chasing a problem where, with an ath10k device running as access point and a Macbook Air as a client, responses to probe requests are sometimes missed by the Macbook Air because they are delayed for a long time, and the Macbook has changed channels by the time they come through. ath

Support for scan while in AP mode, and offchannel while in AP mode

Hi, In the ath9k and several other drivers, commands like the following work while in AP mode: iw wlan0 scan -u ap-force passive and iw wlan0 offchannel 2452 100 On ath10k (using a driver from v3.15-rc1 as of April 13th), these tell me the operation is not supported. Are there any plans to
