Package: hostapd Version: 1:0.6.10-2 Severity: normal Tags: upstream
I'm running hostapd in bridge mode with a TP-Link Model No. TL-WN951N wifi card. lspci says: 00:0a.0 Network controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5008 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01) There are a few devices connected through this wifi router. (Logitech Squuezeboxes, Smartphones, Netbooks, Laptops and so on...) But only a Samsung Galaxy SII and a ASUS eeePC has problems with this configuration. The main problem seems to me the reconnection. Here are a short log when the Galaxy SII is unable to connect or better to say it lost the connection to the access point: Feb 7 21:00:27 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 WPA: EAPOL-Key timeout Feb 7 21:00:27 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 WPA: sending 1/2 msg of Group Key Handshake Feb 7 21:00:28 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 WPA: EAPOL-Key timeout Feb 7 21:00:28 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 WPA: sending 1/2 msg of Group Key Handshake Feb 7 21:00:29 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 WPA: EAPOL-Key timeout Feb 7 21:00:29 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 WPA: sending 1/2 msg of Group Key Handshake Feb 7 21:00:30 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 WPA: EAPOL-Key timeout Feb 7 21:00:30 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 IEEE 802.1X: unauthorizing port Feb 7 21:00:30 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 IEEE 802.11: deauthenticated due to local deauth request Feb 7 21:11:07 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 IEEE 802.11: authentication OK (open system) Feb 7 21:11:07 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 MLME: MLME-AUTHENTICATE.indication(44:a7:cf:c2:97:76, OPEN_SYSTEM) Feb 7 21:11:07 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 MLME: MLME-DELETEKEYS.request(44:a7:cf:c2:97:76) Feb 7 21:11:07 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 IEEE 802.11: authenticated Feb 7 21:15:27 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 WPA: Not in PTKINITDONE; skip Group Key update Feb 7 21:16:08 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 IEEE 802.11: disassociated due to inactivity Feb 7 21:16:08 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 MLME: MLME-DISASSOCIATE.indication(44:a7:cf:c2:97:76, 4) Feb 7 21:16:08 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 MLME: MLME-DELETEKEYS.request(44:a7:cf:c2:97:76) Feb 7 21:16:09 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 IEEE 802.11: deauthenticated due to inactivity Feb 7 21:16:09 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 MLME: MLME-DEAUTHENTICATE.indication(44:a7:cf:c2:97:76, 2) Feb 7 21:16:09 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 MLME: MLME-DELETEKEYS.request(44:a7:cf:c2:97:76) Feb 7 21:17:03 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 IEEE 802.11: authentication OK (open system) Feb 7 21:17:03 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 MLME: MLME-AUTHENTICATE.indication(44:a7:cf:c2:97:76, OPEN_SYSTEM) Feb 7 21:17:03 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 MLME: MLME-DELETEKEYS.request(44:a7:cf:c2:97:76) Feb 7 21:17:03 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 IEEE 802.11: authenticated Feb 7 21:20:27 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 WPA: Not in PTKINITDONE; skip Group Key update Feb 7 21:22:04 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 IEEE 802.11: disassociated due to inactivity Feb 7 21:22:04 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 MLME: MLME-DISASSOCIATE.indication(44:a7:cf:c2:97:76, 4) Feb 7 21:22:04 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 MLME: MLME-DELETEKEYS.request(44:a7:cf:c2:97:76) Feb 7 21:22:05 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 IEEE 802.11: deauthenticated due to inactivity Feb 7 21:22:05 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 MLME: MLME-DEAUTHENTICATE.indication(44:a7:cf:c2:97:76, 2) Feb 7 21:22:05 router hostapd: wlan0: STA 44:a7:cf:c2:97:76 MLME: MLME-DELETEKEYS.request(44:a7:cf:c2:97:76) After that I must disable and enable the wifi connection on the Galaxy. With the eeePC I had the same problem, but with this netbook it happend after a hour or so that the hole hostapd goes down. The daemon is still running but every device is unable to connect and I must do a complete reboot of the router. If you need more information or more logs let me know. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.4 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages hostapd depends on: ii libc6 2.11.3-2 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libnl1 1.1-6 library for dealing with netlink s ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8o-4squeeze7 SSL shared libraries ii lsb-base 3.2-23.2squeeze1 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip hostapd recommends no packages. hostapd suggests no packages. -- Configuration Files: /etc/default/hostapd changed: DAEMON_CONF="/etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf" DAEMON_OPTS="" -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
