wpa_supplicant isn't particularly verbose:

I kind of feel that no packets are sent, since I can't see them on the
firewall, even with packet dumps, not even association attempts.

Running tcpdump on the client doesn't show anything either, but I'm not
sure whether it would normally capture association attempts.

Christian
