I could not reproduce this on big-endian IXP425 either.. Both WPA-PSK
and WPA-EAP worked fine and so did TKIP and CCMP. I would need to get
quite a bit more details to try to figure this out (board specifics,
/proc/cpuinfo, kernel version, kernel config, Prism2/2.5/3 details,
hostapd configuration and full debug log).
