As you have shown me without bugs@ in Cc (please keep it from now on,
thanks), your AP's name contains quotes.
/bsd: - 00:25:45:xx:xx:xx 13 +216 54M ess privacy! no ""WLAN
Repeater""!
Your network's name is
"WLAN Repeater"
with quotes, but your OpenBSD client configuration assumes the network name:
WLAN Repeater
without quotes.
You can either add the quotes on your OpenBSD client as well,
or remove them from the access point's configuration.
