Hi Sebastian,<br><br>I've had issues with associating an Airport Extreme client using 10.3 and 10.4 to an AP advertising both WPA 1 / TKIP and WPA 2 / CCMP capabilities. This issue doesn't seem to be limited to hostap-based access points but rather a problem with the STA in question. Have you seen it successfully associate to any AP using both TKIP and CCMP?
<br><br>Cheers,<br>Jonathan<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 5/8/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Sebastián González</b> <<a href="mailto:s.gonzalez@uclouvain.be">s.gonzalez@uclouvain.be</a>> wrote:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
I can't get my hostapd + madwifi-ng + bridge configuration to work.<br><br>When I attempt to connect wirelessly to my Gentoo PC using a Mac OS X<br>10.4 machine, I get the following in the logs:<br><br>May 5 02:38:53 [hostapd] ath0: STA 00:30:65:1c:4a:c2 IEEE

<br><br>Even if hostapd.conf contains the line "bridge=br0", the WPA key<br>exchange packets seem to be eaten by the bridge. (There is a delay<br>between the time the first line is logged and the time the other two
