[ath9k-devel] Auth Packet TX Delay

[David Littell <david.littell@prodeasystems.com>]

Hi all,

 

I'm seeing a situation very similar to Robert's but instead using
hostapd on a 5 GHz channel.  Clients attempting to authenticate cannot
unless I kill hostapd, ifconfig up, ifconfig down, and restart hostapd.
After that sequence clients can authenticate and appear to be working
normally.  

 

Simply restarting hostapd without the ifconfig steps continues to not
work.  However, following the  ifconfig steps I can restart hostapd and
flip back and forth between 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz channels with no further
authentication failures.

 

What seems to be different is, unlike Robert's "periodic" problem, I've
never seen a 5 GHz channel work unless I go through the ifconfig steps.
If I change to a 2.4 GHz channel I have yet to see it fail to
authenticate clients.

 

I'm running hostapd 1.0 and compat-wireless-v3.6.8-1 ath9k.

 

 

Thanks,

Dave
