I have hostapd running on NanoPi R1 and latest master (153).
WLAN works as expected when I use
- Channel: 1-11
- Encryption: WPA2
- 802.11w : disabled
However the following issues are experienced
-
Setup A:
When, Encryption = WAP2+3, 802.11w = Disabled
Then, SSID visible however PSK is not acceptable, although correct;
Tried restarting hostapd few times with no results; PSK always fails -
Setup B:
When, Encryption = WAP2+3, 802.11w = Optional
Then, an additional blue0_man is created; SSID is not broadcasted anymore; “SSID doesn’t exist” message shows on laptop when trying to connect as hidden network
** After restarting hostapd few times, the SSID becomes visible and connects however it cannot get a DHCP address (client gets a non-addressable one); Setting manually the IP to match the blue0 or the green0 subnets achieves no connectivity;
** Putting settings back to Encrypt=WPA2 & 802.11w=off doesn’t restore functionality (cannot connect)
** Only way to recover from this situation is through a reboot
Anything else I should try to troubleshoot both setups ? unless i should forget Setup A/B on NanoPi (incompatible)
=====
Setup B: blue0 MAC == blue0_man MAC
Setup B: blue0_man clone of blue0
