Comment(by mbletsas):

 Dave,

 A variety of issues contribute to the 1cc mess (caused by the mesh traffic
 ;-)

 * Too many radios (mostly a feature manifesting as a bug ;-)

 * Excessive  probe responses (dealt with in .p47 and .p48)

 * mDNS traffic transmitted at basic rates (easily tunable)

 mesh_set_bcastr rate

 Sets the rate index for mesh broadcast and muticast packets. Rates are
 expressed in expressed in 2 * Mb/s, ie 11Mb/s is 22, 5.5Mb/s is 11, etc.

 iwpriv ethX mesh_set_bcastr rate

 I think we should close this for now.

 M.
