       <li>Repaired the 'ifconfig nwflag' command (broken since OpenBSD 6.4).
       <li>Added a new 'stayauth' nwflag which can be set to ignore deauth frames.
         This is useful when deauth frames are being spoofed by an attacker.
       <li>Repaired the 'ifconfig mode' command to properly force a wireless
         interface into 11a/b/g/n mode.
       <li>Made 11n Tx rate selection more sensitive to transmission failures.
       <li>Fixed automatic use of HT protection in 11n hostap mode.
       <li>Fixed WPA APs occasionally appearing as non-WPA APs during AP selection.
       <li>Fixed some eligible APs being ignored during AP selection after a
         roaming failure.
       <li>Added support for 802.11n Tx aggregation to net80211 and the
         <a href="https://man.openbsd.org/iwn.4">iwn(4)</a> driver.
