Hi,

I modified hostapd.c to try to set the retry limit to 0 using these liens

struct iwreq iwr;

iwr.u.retry.flags = IW_RETRY_LIMIT;
iwr.u.retry.value = 0;
iwr.u.retry.disabled = 0;
if (ioct(hapd.sock, SIOCGISWRETRY, &iwr) < 0) {
	perror("ioctl SIOCGISWRETRY");
	return -1;

When I run it I get a
ioctl SIOCGISWRETRY: No such device

What is the proper way to do this?

Thanks
