Hi guys,<br><br>I sent below e-mail to Fedora list and I'm sending it to you as well as I'm not sure if the issue is caused by hostapd or by Fedora 12 latest kernels.<br><br>Also please note that I was not able to compile latest trunk version on Fedora 12 (with F12 kernel)<br>

<br><br>Hello guys,<br><br>After the a bit problematic upgrade to F12 I tried to make my wifi AP (WPA2) work. SoI compiled hostapd trunk version I used without a problem in F11 and I immediately experienced DHCP problems and wifi clients were disconnected after about 2-5 minutes after the handshake was established (and did not reconnect afterwards).<br>
<br>I made an upgrade to the latest F12 kernel and tried again. I also tried latest developement hostapd version - 0.7.0 but without luck.<br><br>As the last resort I managed to install latest F11 kernel to my F12 and bingo - wifi is stable and DHCP problems dissapeared.<br>
<br>So in summary:<br>F12 kernel kernel-PAE-2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686 and kernel-PAE-2.6.31.6-145.fc12.i686 do not work for me with hostapd 0.7.0 or older trunk version.<br>F11 kernel kernel-PAE-2.6.30.9-99.fc11.i686 works fine.<br>
<br>Cheers,<br><br>Jaiv<br>
