Package: hostapd Version: 2:2.7+git20190128+0c1e29f-6+deb10u2 Hi, I'm trying to use my new WLAN / Wi-Fi USB adapter via Debian-10 to set up an access point (master / ap /infrastructure mode).
Sadly that doesn't work on Debian-10. After a few minutes the client is always disconnected with hostapd telling me: handle_probe_req: send failed On the other hand the device works great with Debian-11 (testing) and also openSUSE-15.2. I've tried using a backports Linux-5.7 kernel and I tried hostapd-2.9 (hostapd-2.9 compiled from source). None of both helped to solve the bug. So I'm actually not sure it's the fault of hostapd. But I just don't know what else could make the difference to Debian-11 (testing). So I'm opening this bug for hostapd. I've tested the USB device with different hosts. And even if Debian is being run inside Qemu it's always the same (regardless of the Qemu host os) I've even made positive and negative tests with Debian-10 and Debian-11 inside Qemu and the results are always the same. I attached the "hostapd -d ..." output as file. USB device details Brand: CSL Brand Model: 27395 Brand WDP No.: 300649 WEEE-Reg-No. DE 67896761 It's probably equivalent to the: Panda Wireless PAU09 (at least it looks exactly the same, except the labeling) https://deviwiki.com/wiki/Panda_Wireless_PAU09 https://wiki.debian.org/rt2800usb Chip: Ralink RT5572 Used driver: rt2800usb by Debian standard kernel hostapd -d -iwlan0 hostapd.conf #### interface=wlan0 ssid=aaaaaaaaa country_code=DE hw_mode=a channel=36 wpa=2 auth_algs=1 wpa_pairwise=CCMP wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK wpa_passphrase=aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa logger_stdout=-1 logger_stdout_level=2 #### I tested several variations of this. Including 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz modes. I just didn't test it without encryption. Interestingly I've had a very similar problem before with another USB WLAN adapter. ALFA Network AWUS036ACH - 802.11ac AC1200 It has no upstream driver, so I used aircrack-ng/rtl8812au Interestingly it showed very similar problems on Debian-10 and also works fine with Debian-11 (testing) and openSUSE-15.2. I've opened an issue for aircrack-ng/rtl8812au before. But after finding out that the bug only appears on Debian-10, I'm still trying to gather additional details. But I'm hoping it's maybe the same root cause as with the Ralink RT5572 adapter. https://github.com/aircrack-ng/rtl8812au/issues/695 Regards, kolAflash
