Thanks. This is peculiar, but indeed pretty clear on the issue being triggered by use of nl80211 instead of WEXT regardless of what the actual issue is. I haven't used wpa_supplicant v1.0-rc3 pretty much at all myself and there has been quite a few changes in nl80211 interaction since then. Anyway, this should give a good test case with the current kernel and that somewhat older version with nl80211 implementation in wpa_supplicant. > > In addition, you could try to collect the frames exchanged by the > > success and failure cases using a monitor interface: > > > > iw wlan0 interface add mon0 type monitor > > ifconfig mon0 up > > dumpcap -i mon0 -w /tmp/capture.pkt > > > > And then run the success/failure case. > > Ok, will try to do that too. If you'll get a chance to do that, it would be quite helpful since it could make it easier to try to reproduce this if there is indeed something special about that AP behavior that allows the issue to show up but does not show up in the wpa_supplicant debug log. -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA _______________________________________________ ath9k-devel mailing list ath9k-devel@lists.ath9k.org https://lists.ath9k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath9k-devel
