hostapd - cannot get wpa enabled anymore

Hi all,

I believe I had WPA-PSK working with this configuration, but now I am only seeing WEP when I start hostapd.

interface=wlan0
driver=nl80211

# logging
logger_syslog=1
logger_syslog_level=3
logger_stdout=-1
logger_stdout_level=2

# Dump file for state information (on SIGUSR1)
dump_file=/tmp/hostapd.dump
ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd
ctrl_interface_group=wheel

own_ip_addr=192.168.6.1

ssid=wireless
country_code=US
ieee80211d=1
hw_mode=g
channel=3

auth_algs=3
ignore_broadcast_ssid=0

# enable vlans (put guests on a separate network from internal devices)
# allow guests access to the Internet only ...
dynamic_vlan=1
vlan_file=/etc/hostapd/hostapd.vlan

# 802.11n
ieee80211n=1
wme_enabled=1
ht_capab=[HT40-][SHORT-GI-20][SHORT-GI-40]

# this appears to break WPA
#eapol_key_index_workaround=0

# WPA-EAP
eap_server=0
ieee8021x=0
eap_message=wireless


# unused, only plan on using certificates
##eap_user_file=/etc/hostapd/hostapd.eap_user
#ca_cert=/etc/hostapd/cacert.pem
#server_cert=/etc/hostapd/hostapd.server-certificate.pem
#private_key=/etc/hostapd/hostapd.server-key.pem
#private_key=/etc/hostapd/cakey.pem
#private_key_passwd=<something goes here>

#check_crl=1

#pac_opaque_encr_key=53f284452e152bca9507bb11df421d35

wpa=2
wpa_passphrase=<secure passphrase>
wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
wpa_pairwise=TKIP CCMP
rsn_pairwise=CCMP

Any ideas?

Walter

Re: hostapd - cannot get wpa enabled anymore

Hi all,

I believe this fixed, not quite sure why or how:

#ht_capab=[HT40-][SHORT-GI-20][SHORT-GI-40]
ht_capab=[HT40+][SHORT-GI-40][DSSS_CCK-40]

I thought that only affected wireless N capabilities?
