Subject: [PATCH] WNM: Choose the best available BSS, not just the first one
This should allow STA to make better choice about which BSS to roam to.
Use estimated throughput as comparison value. Can improve the estimated
throughput calculation to improve this selection criteria if wanted in
the future.
