Hi Amitkumar, any news about this issue? I've the same problem also.. Security a part, we can't leave the WIFI open or just with WEP because we get too many not trusted connection that consume a lot of our bandwidth Thanks, regards Luana 2016-07-08 11:15 GMT+02:00 Amitkumar Karwar <akarwar@xxxxxxxxxxx>: >> From: linux-wireless-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:linux-wireless- >> owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Nestor Machno >> Sent: Thursday, July 07, 2016 6:07 AM >> To: linux-wireless@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >> Subject: Fwd: mwifiex+wpa_supplicant cannot set up WPA/WPA2 ADHOC >> >> Hi All, >> Amitkumar, can you confirm if this this is a bug or today is fixed? > > Yes. This is a bug in our firmware. ADHOC in WPA/WPA2 security is broken. We have asked firmware experts to look into this.
