From fbb0a27a8ad56f822f479ee85446d9c29483a3d1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Adam Baker Date: Sun, 9 Mar 2008 22:40:40 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] rt2x00: never disable multicast because it disables broadcast too On rt73 and rt61 disabling reception of multicast packets also disables broadcast traffic which we never want to do. Therefore we should never disable multicast. Signed-off-by: Adam Baker Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn Signed-off-by: John W.
