To summarize: - Open System worked (only basic IPv4 tested, eg. ICMP ping) - MAC filtering from hostapd didn't work - WEP didn't work - WPA and WPA2 weren't tested I have attached a hostapd log (concatenated, commented, and gzipped) of my testing runs. In the end I need this to work properly as an AP with WPA2 so I'm willing to test further if somebody is willing to try to fix the whole thing... Thanks, Sab
