Hi Everyone,I have a few questions.I have setup my router to have a wireless AP using Madwifi and Hostapd. I followed the instructions listed here:http://leaf.sourceforge.net/doc/bucu-ap.html Problem #1I notice that I am only connecting at the "b" rate with my laptop. I have a "g" card for both my AP and my laptop.If I setup my AP with no encryption though, I can connect at "g" speed. Problem #2I'm not quite sure how to change to using AES for encryption. Right now I am using TKIP. I thought in hostapd.conf you would list only ccmp. wpa_pairwise=CCMP vswpa_pairwise=TKIP CCMP If I do the first example I am unable to connect at all. Here is my configuration- # apkg -l initrd 3.1 Rev 7 uClibc 0.9.28 root 3.1 Rev 7 uClibc 0.9.28 config 0.6 Rev 8 uClibc 0.9.28 etc 3.1 Rev 7 uClibc 0.9.28 modules 2.4.x Rev 5 uClibc 0.9.28 iptables 1.3.5 Rev 3 uClibc 0.9.28 dhcpcd 1.3.22pl4-22 Rev 2 uClibc 0.9.28 shorwall 3.4.7 Rev 1 uClibc 0.9.28 ulogd 1.24 Rev 5 uClibc 0.9.28 dropbear 0.50 Rev 3 uClibc 0.9.28 mhttpd 1.19 Rev 6 uClibc 0.9.28 ntpd 4.2.2p3 Rev 1 uClibc 0.9.28 webconf 1.1.3 Rev 3 uClibc 0.9.28 libm 0.9.28 Rev 1 uClibc 0.9.28 libssl 0.9.7l Rev 1 uClibc 0.9.28 libcrpto 0.9.7l Rev 1 uClibc 0.9.28 hostapd 0.5.7 Rev 1 uClibc 0.9.28 configdb moddb #less hostapd.confinterface=ath0 driver=madwifi logger_syslog=-1 logger_syslog_level=1 logger_stdout=1 logger_stdout_level=2 debug=2 ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd ssid=test hw_mode=g macaddr_acl=0 auth_algs=3 ignore_broadcast_ssid=0 wpa=3wpa_psk=my key here wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK wpa_pairwise=TKIP CCMP eap_server=0 eapol_key_index_workaround=0 #dmesg <snipped>ath_hal: 0.9.18.0 (AR5210, AR5211, AR5212, RF5111, RF5112, RF2413, RF5413) wlan: 0.8.4.2 (0.9.3) ath_rate_sample: 1.2 (0.9.3) ath_pci: 0.9.4.5 (0.9.3) PCI: Found IRQ 7 for device 01:0a.0 wifi0: 11b rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbpswifi0: 11g rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps 6Mbps 9Mbps 12Mbps 18Mbps 24Mbps 36Mbps 48Mbps 54Mbps wifi0: turboG rates: 6Mbps 12Mbps 18Mbps 24Mbps 36Mbps 48Mbps 54Mbps wifi0: H/W encryption support: WEP AES AES_CCM TKIP wifi0: mac 7.9 phy 4.5 radio 5.6 wifi0: Use hw queue 1 for WME_AC_BE traffic wifi0: Use hw queue 0 for WME_AC_BK traffic wifi0: Use hw queue 2 for WME_AC_VI traffic wifi0: Use hw queue 3 for WME_AC_VO traffic wifi0: Use hw queue 8 for CAB traffic wifi0: Use hw queue 9 for beacons wifi0: Atheros 5212: mem=0xf4100000, irq=7wlan: mac acl policy registered # tail /etc/network/interfaces # # Step 7 (optional): configure Wireless Access Point auto ath0 iface ath0 inet static address 192.168.4.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.4.255 # tail /etc/modules# Wireless AP (Madwifi) w/ WPA ath_hal wlan wlan_scan_ap ath_rate_sample ath_pci autocreate=ap wlan_acl waln_ccmp wlan_tkip wlan_xauth I'm seeing a lot of this in my daemon logs-Apr 19 12:05:15 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 WPA: EAPOL-Key timeout Apr 19 12:05:15 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 WPA: sending 1/4 msg of 4-Way Handshake Apr 19 12:05:15 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 IEEE 802.1X: unauthorizing port Apr 19 12:05:15 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 IEEE 802.11: deauthenticated due to local deauth request Apr 19 12:05:15 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 IEEE 802.11: disassociated Apr 19 12:05:15 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 IEEE 802.11: associated Apr 19 12:05:15 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 WPA: event 1 notification Apr 19 12:05:15 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 WPA: start authentication Apr 19 12:05:15 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 IEEE 802.1X: unauthorizing port Apr 19 12:05:15 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 WPA: sending 1/4 msg of 4-Way Handshake Apr 19 12:05:15 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 WPA: received EAPOL-Key frame (2/4 Pairwise) Apr 19 12:05:15 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 WPA: invalid MIC in msg 2/4 of 4-Way Handshake Apr 19 12:05:16 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 WPA: EAPOL-Key timeout Apr 19 12:05:16 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 WPA: sending 1/4 msg of 4-Way Handshake Apr 19 12:05:16 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 WPA: received EAPOL-Key frame (2/4 Pairwise) Apr 19 12:05:16 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 WPA: invalid MIC in msg 2/4 of 4-Way Handshake Apr 19 12:05:17 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 WPA: EAPOL-Key timeout Apr 19 12:05:17 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 WPA: sending 1/4 msg of 4-Way Handshake Apr 19 12:05:17 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 WPA: received EAPOL-Key frame (2/4 Pairwise) Apr 19 12:05:17 hostapd: ath0: STA 00:16:b6:b6:84:90 WPA: invalid MIC in msg 2/4 of 4-Way Handshake Any insight you may have is greatly appreciated.

Dear All, Iam a bit confused, Is 802.11r (fast BSS transition) a driver capability or a capability of the hostapd ?? if it is a driver capability, Does ath9k and ath5k support 802.11r?? how do i verify this?? google search shows me that mac80211 supports 802.11r so can i assume that ath5k and ath9k have this feature and that it is a driver feature?? then what is the roll of hostapd in 802.11r, is it the same roll as in 802.1x?? hostapd mentions 802.11r capability so iam confused, please help!! |

You may get an answer here, but you're posting to the wrong list. I'd suggest asking on the linux wireless list, and maybe the ath9k-devel list. http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Support http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k#Mailing_list -Brian Prodoehl On Mon, Oct 25, 2010 at 7:56 AM, Queenie de Melo <que...@gm...>wrote: > Dear All, > > Iam a bit confused, > Is 802.11r (fast BSS transition) a driver capability or a capability of > the hostapd ?? > > if it is a driver capability, Does ath9k and ath5k support 802.11r?? > how do i verify this?? > > google search shows me that mac80211 supports 802.11r so can i assume that > ath5k and ath9k have this feature and that it is a driver feature?? > then what is the roll of hostapd in 802.11r, is it the same roll as in > 802.1x?? > hostapd mentions 802.11r capability so iam confused, > > please help!! > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Nokia and AT&T present the 2010 Calling All Innovators-North America > contest > Create new apps & games for the Nokia N8 for consumers in U.S. and Canada > $10 million total in prizes - $4M cash, 500 devices, nearly $6M in > marketing > Develop with Nokia Qt SDK, Web Runtime, or Java and Publish to Ovi Store > http://p.sf.net/sfu/nokia-dev2dev > _______________________________________________ > Madwifi-users mailing list > Mad...@li... > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/madwifi-users > > |
