Yes, indeed. As far as I can tell, the main issue is in Beacon frames not being sent out. Many of my clients don't really care about that (well, as long as they are not going to use power save mode), so they can already associate with WPA using bcm43xx as the AP. -- Jouni MalinenPGP id EFC895FA - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
Prism2 driver for Devicescape 802.11 stack (AP and fullmac STA)
I've started creating a new Prism2/2.5/3 driver for the Devicescape 802.11 stack based on the Host AP driver. This allows access point mode to be tested with the current net/d80211 code in wireless-dev.git (requires hostapd snapshot from the development branch) and eventually, will be an example on how fullmac-type of client implementation (MLME in firmware/hardware) can be implemented. My changes are available for preview from http://hostap.epitest.fi/releases/testing/jkm-wireless-dev-patches.tar.gz (this is a tarball of quilt 'patches' directory for wireless-dev.git). The current version seems to allow WPA2-PSK/CCMP to be used in AP mode at least with PC Cards (prism3_cs.ko). I have not yet tested other hardware versions. In addition, some of the features (e.g., firmware download) are not yet enabled in this version. The client mode is not yet complete, but d80211_fullmac_client.diff shows what type of changes are needed to support fullmac design. -- Jouni MalinenPGP id EFC895FA - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
