Hi Meino, Looking at the code it looks like the "WPA: wpa_sm_step() called recursively" message is due to the WPA state machine of hostapd currently running a step in its state machine and that step then trying to run another step in the state machine. It seems like that's an a hostapd problem, probably triggered by the authentication issues. Can you post your hostapd.conf file (with passwords and other personal information redacted?) It still seems like something with authentication isn't quite right. Also, have you seen https://github.com/oblique/create_ap There's even Gentoo instructions for pulling it from an overlay. It might be interesting to see what kind of config file that script creates (and if it works.) Regards, Todd
