I am not an expert, and the best way I know of evidencing the failure is ifdown wlan0 && ifconfig wlan0 down Kill any existing processes: ps aux |grep wpa # wpa_supplicant -c/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -iwlan0 -d Is this the best way? ifup --verbose and /var/log/wpa_action.log don't seem like alot of use for this.
