I don't understand what you are saying here. A normal, non-OpenFlow AP
doesn't require a controller. Are you using openflow or not?

When you check the case with openflow, run dpctl and see whether the
statistics counters for your flows are updated. Alternatively, look whether
you are receiving any packet-ins in your controller.
