Hi,

testing http://marc.info/?t=140024539000003&r=1&w=2 further and now I hit issue with corporate WIFI. I can connect perfectly fine to 2 of them provided with WPA2-PSK, either with regular ifconfig or with wpa_supplicant from packages, but the thing is that my /var/log/messages is flooded by these messages repeating like every 3s:

/bsd: arp info overwritten for GW_IP by MAC_1 on iwn0
/bsd: arp info overwritten for GW_IP by MAC_2 on iwn0

arp -a shows only one MAC all the time and that's MAC_2 no matter if I reboot or just reconnect to network. Info from inside about setup of those APs is:

There actually are 2 gateways having the same IP address GW_IP and the mac addresses belong to them. They work as failover and also load balacer.

Not sure if it's because of that or because of ARP flooding in /var/log/messages, but performance of those WiFi is quite strange like ping replies over 20ms, a lot of web services doesn't work, takes years to connect, some are running perfectly fine immediately and such.

So.....

1) Is there anything I can do with ARP messages in /var/log/messages? Nothing in man arp and some sysctl switch I found only in FreeBSD 2) Is there anything what can be tweaked from OpenBSD side to improve general performance of WiFi connection or is it just either AP fix or nothing?

Thanks a lot
