Description Peter Barnes 2018-01-08 19:25:13 UTC

This is a placeholder for the Spectrum component.  Please see the Wifi bug 2846 for all details.

Comment 1 Peter Barnes 2018-01-10 21:05:15 UTC

We're tracking this in bug 2791 now.

Comment 2 Tom Henderson 2018-05-29 22:31:20 UTC

Move to NEEDINFO (is it resolved by 2791 or is there something more to do?)

The fix from bug 2791 (or something very similar) needs to be applied to the spectrum Ix version.  Another approach would be to abstract out the Ix calculation to a utility class, or refactor wifi to use the spectrum Ix directly.  The last is probably the right approach.

The last idea is interesting, but we may want to consider also to deprecate the non-spectrum phy (YansWifiPhy) if we go down that path.
