I am currently away from home running on my ThinkPad laptop. I have been unable to connect to the hotel guest network with errors similar to the issue of connecting to virtual APs that was fixed in the wpa_supplicant about a year ago. Oddly, I am also having issues connecting to my phone hotspot when in the hotel.
After a few "service netif restart wlan0" operations, I can usually connect, but I suspect that the issue is that "list aps" shows about 80 BSSIDs and, when the connection failed, my phone was not one of them. The hotel mesh SSID accounted for almost all, though few others are always included. I suspect that this is pointing to the problem, although my familiarity with how the driver determines the BSSIDs to maintain is near zero. Once associated with my phone, things just work as long as I keep the hotspot and my laptop active. I would like to know if there's any data I might collect while I am here that should help troubleshoot this. I have about 24 hours until I check out. -- Kevin Oberman, Part time kid herder and retired Network Engineer E-mail: rkober...@gmail.com PGP Fingerprint: D03FB98AFA78E3B78C1694B318AB39EF1B055683
