Re: Windows 11 Client can't connect to WPA3 Enterprise

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!

Best regards,

Robert
