maximum WiFi associations on AP using ath9k and wpa_supplicant

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello All,

 

I would like to test how maximum WiFi associations are possible on my AP with security mode. The WiFi authentication, association,4-way handshake are OK but I can not get an IP adress for the second interface.

It's works in open mode using WPA supplicant but not with WPA2 AES security mode. I use an ath9k driver (AR9380) and Ubuntu 14.04 (same issue on debian 7)

 

Could you take a look on the following command line please:

 
#APUT SSID: Livebox-7650_5
wpa_passphrase Livebox-7650_5 123456789 > temp.txt
sed '1ictrl_interface=/run/wpa_supplicant' temp.txt > my.conf

I cannot have an IP adress, it stops here....Ok in open security mode using WPA_supplicant. Do you have an idea please?

 

Thanks,
