Hi there. I'm running hostapd on Raspbian, and can't seem to quite figure out how to get authentication working. When I setup hostapd to run an unencrypted network, things are fine, but when I set wpa=2, wpa=1 - the clients accessing the AP show an "authentication problem". The output from running Hostapd is: Config dir: /tmp/create_ap.wlan0.conf.J6hbQmWF PID: 6864 Sharing Internet using method: nat hostapd command-line interface: hostapd_cli -p /tmp/create_ap.wlan0.conf.J6hbQmWF/hostapd_ctrl Configuration file: /tmp/create_ap.wlan0.conf.J6hbQmWF/hostapd.conf drv->ifindex=3 l2_sock_recv==l2_sock_xmit=0x0x80656f70 wlan0: interface state UNINITIALIZED->COUNTRY_UPDATE +rtl871x_sta_deauth_ops, ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff is deauth, reason=2 rtl871x_set_key_ops rtl871x_set_key_ops rtl871x_set_key_ops rtl871x_set_key_ops Using interface wlan0 with hwaddr 48:02:2a:ee:d1:ce and ssid "NEIN" rtl871x_set_wps_assoc_resp_ie rtl871x_set_wps_beacon_ie rtl871x_set_wps_probe_resp_ie rtl871x_set_beacon_ops rtl871x_set_hidden_ssid_ops ioctl[RTL_IOCTL_HOSTAPD]: Invalid argument rtl871x_set_key_ops wlan0: interface state COUNTRY_UPDATE->ENABLED wlan0: AP-ENABLED ^C +rtl871x_sta_deauth_ops, ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff is deauth, reason=3 rtl871x_set_key_ops rtl871x_set_key_ops rtl871x_set_key_ops rtl871x_set_key_ops Doing cleanup..
