Comment(by carrano):

 If it helps:

 1 - I confirm that beacons are not causing high traffic. Even at 1cc you
 won't get more than 20/sec.

 2 - We are not really ready to turn than off anyway. Any wireless
 operation will bring them back.
 try:

 iwpriv msh0 bcn_control 0
 iwlist scan
 iwpriv msh0 bcn_control
