I'm testing the WNDA4100 with torvalds/linux.git and as of a day or
two ago and wpa_supplicant-2.0.

I haven't measured throughput. Latency is really bad for interactive
connections, but at least the packets are flowing on all bands. Yay!

Ping to the access point is around 3 ms with the odd 20+ ms when the
kernel goes off to do something else.


Here's my problem:

After wpa_supplicant -Dnl80211 -ddd sees scan results and says
"SME: Send 20/40 BSS Coexistence to $my_ap" and that frame is acked,
wpa_supplicant seems to receive a "link up" event which causes it to
delete the existing association for no good reason. It blacklists my
ap so I need to reconnect manually with iw dev wlan1 connect -w $ssid.

(Oh, and iw dev wlan1 connect -w consistently says "Unspecified failure"
even though the connection is established fine by wpa_supplicant. Other
problem though.)

My AP is hidden, so it isn't included in the scan results. But
wpa_supplicant is connected to it fine when the scan results arrive.

wpa_supplicant does *not* disconnect if I manually initiate a scan
when there is no other link activity, this only happens for
"Scan requested (ret=0) - scan timeout 30 seconds" scans.

What's the problem? wpa_supplicant or rt2800usb or mac80211 or all of
the above?


Thanks
