Hi again;-) I have proof now, that the APs respond to authentication requests regardless of a successful probe before. Simply skipping the direct probe is sufficient to connect successfully. All my efforts to find a way to get a response to the probe requests were unsuccessful. Maybe that's something only aironet devices handle correctly?
