Although it might not be that important I though I should report the following observations when using wpa_supplicant with the nl80211 driver onn ath5k: 1. wpa_supplicant complains about "Could not configure driver to use managed mode" and "Failed to set interface wlan0 mode" (but it works anyway). This is Debian sid wpasupplicant_0.6.9-3. The error is from wpasupplicant-0.6.9/src/drivers/driver_nl80211.c where is sends the NL80211_CMD_SET_INTERFACE msg. 2. The first ifup after boot or ath5k module reload (modprobe ath5k -r; modprobe ath5k) is much faster than the second and subsequent ifup. The first time it takes around 7 secs until "wpa_cli status" reports wpa_state=COMPLETED, the second time it takes around 25 secs.
