I'm putting this great software to good use!
However I have issues with my iPod which may or may not be related to hostapd.

Please see http://lists.shmoo.com/pipermail/hostap/2008-February/017366.html .
I still see the behaviour mentioned therein with the latest hostapd from git.

My iPod wants to associate with listen_interval=10, gets associated ok
and when I dump the hostapd state, it says 0. Please see the attached
hostapd log (the log has "listen_interval=10" (!), so the value seems
to get lost somewhere).

hostapd state dump - Sat Nov 22 17:25:53 2008
num_sta=1 num_sta_non_erp=0 num_sta_no_short_slot_time=0
num_sta_no_short_preamble=0

STA=00:22:41:91:8e:96
 AID=1 flags=0x283 [AUTH][ASSOC][SHORT_PREAMBLE][WME]
 capability=0x421 listen_interval=0
 supported_rates=82 84 8b 96 24 30 48 6c 0c 12 18 60
 timeout_next=NULLFUNC POLL

Thanks for looking into this,
 Stefan.
