In practice, I would not even bother trying to make this work with WEXT (it's been obsolete for years..) and wpa_supplicat 0.7.3 is indeed old, so if you want more help with this, I'd update both the kernel (if needed, for nl80211 support) and wpa_supplicant first. -- Jouni Malinen PGP id EFC895FA _______________________________________________ Hostap mailing list Hostap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/hostap
