Package: hostapd
Version: 1:1.0-3+b2
Severity: normal
Hi there,
The default LSB init script makes hostapd starts with
Should-Start: $network
With such setup, it's started before isc-dhcp-server for instance.
A few time on reboot, hostapd fails to get up proper. The wifi clients can
connect but never gets an IP. The only way to fix the issue is to restart
completely hostapd.
I changed the init script to
Required-Start: $remote_fs $network isc-dhcp-server
and had no issue since then.
I thought odd to have isc-dhcp-server starting after hostapd, since in most
usual scenarii people will expect to get a dynamically assigned IP.
But maybe that not the main issue (maybe hostapd just start too start and mess
up the network before it is properly set up, I dont know)
