Probably not, i.e., this would likely result in another connection attempt after that failed attempt due to the "late Deauthentication frame" terminating the first attempt. The exact behavior depends on which driver is used since it may not be wpa_supplicant SME that is used here to handle the steps between Authentication and Association frame exchanges. -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA _______________________________________________ Hostap mailing list Hostap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/hostap
