[PATCH 2/2] Simplify scanning and use correct receive channel

Olof Johansson dev at skyshaper.net
Wed May 22 06:18:27 EDT 2013


updated patch
----

This simplifies the scanning a bit by removing the end_scan which is
not necessary. It also makes use of the channel switch command instead
of using start scan on every channel.

Reorders the 2.4Ghz channels to that the hw_values are correct
and possible to use.
