Hi!

So is there a good solution for this? There is this software beacons
switch which you can enable but I read here:

http://wiki.villagetelco.org/index.php?title=Information_about_cell-id_splitting,_stuck_beacons,_and_failed_IBSS_merges!

that this has impact on Broadcom hardware:

It has been observed that this little TSF deviants confused devices
with Broadcom chipsets, such as the Linksys WRT54GL: They were still
working but they stopped sending beacons.

Is this true? Is there no other less hacky solution? Is there any work
being done to fix this in HAL?
