IEEE 802.11 wireless stack improvements:
+
+ - Reduced usage of RTS frames improves overall throughput and latency.
+
- Improved transmit rate selection in the
+ iwm(4) driver.
+
- Improved radio hardware calibration in the
+ athn(4) driver.
+
- The bwfm(4) driver now
+ provides more accurate device configuration information to userland.
+
- Added new routing socket message RTM_80211INFO to provide details
+ of 802.11 interface state changes to
+ dhclient(8) and
+ route(8).
+
- The autojoin feature will no longer connect to unknown open networks
+ by default. This behaviour must now be explicitly enabled with
+ ifconfig(8).
+
- The iwn(4) and
+ iwm(4) drivers will now
+ automatically try to connect to a network if the radio kill switch is
+ toggled to allow radio transmissions while the interface is marked UP.
