Hi All,

I'd like to put some information in the Beacon sent from the softap. See this article for an example.

My beacon looks like:

Cell 05 - Address: 1A:FE:34:99:EC:51
Channel:3
Frequency:2.422 GHz (Channel 3)
Quality=70/70 Signal level=-32 dBm

IE: Unknown: 010882848B960C121824
IE: Unknown: 030103
IE: Unknown: 32043048606C

and I'd like to put some information in the "IE" fields (information elements) above. My application will have security set to:

config.authmode = AUTH_OPEN;

so these fields won't be used at all. I sifted through the code but couldn't find a way to change this info. Anyone have any idea how to do this?

Thanks for any help.

Rick
