The second VAP shows different behavior: * Without encryption one get's a simple "unable to connect" error. * With WPA enabled the iOS client connects and disconnects shortly thereafter. It keeps doing that forever. All that only happens if VPA#1 is configured with WPA enabled. > > > It looks like the mac80211/ath9k driver gets confused when WPA is > > > activated on VAP#1.

The pcap files can be found here: http://dev.cloudtrax.com/downloads/pcap/ These pcap files were captured while VAP#1 was WPA encrypted and VPA#2 was unencrypted. An Apple notebook tried to connect to the router on VAP#1: apple-vap1.pcap -> captured packets on the notebook itself vap1_vpa2_nowpa.pcap -> captured packets from the router (wifi interface) mon_vpa2_nowpa.pcap -> captured packets from the router (hostapd monitor interface) As you can see the Apple device even sends a few DHCP/DNS/etc packets until it suddenly sends a disconnect request. This made me think it is not related to hostapd but I could be wrong here.
