Hi I’ve been trying wpa_supplicant on Raspnerry PI running latest Raspbian. Open mesh network works fine, however SEA key management doesn’t. By doesn’t I mean, it’s not resolving MAC via ARP and not being able to PING. I’m testing this on 2 nodes. Running the same Wireless chipset. Bellow is a lot of information about my env. Same setup is pretty much on both RasPI, the only difference is the IP address. What should I do next to try to find out what is the problem? Please HELP? I’m truly stuck. I’m more than happy to provide any other info you think would be helpful.
