Hi Beniamino, you were right, setting "group_mgmt_cipher=BIP-GMAC-256" (the default is AES-128-CMAC) did the trick. At least in "WPA3 Enterprise 192-bit" mode. But it seems to mess up "WPA3 Enterprise transition" mode... but this is a new topic. I already tried this setting couple of days ago, but hostapd failed to start with that. Maybe a typo, maybe that was prior to upgrading hostapd to 2.10 (was 2.9 before). However... Thank you for your hint!
