Log:
  Some odd APs send beacons on the same TX queue as non-beacons. This breaks
  802.11 duplicate detection. Upon looking at the standard, we discover
  that 802.11-2007 says:
  "A receiving QoS STA is also required to keep only the most recent
  cache entry per<Address 2, TID, sequence-number>  triple, storing only
  the most recently received fragment number for that triple. A receiving
  STA may omit tuples obtained from broadcast/multicast or ATIM frames
  from the cache."
  
  To fix this, we just disable duplicate detection for multicast/broadcast
  frames.
