Hello.
I'm using wpa_supplicant-0.5.4 on Gentoo and 0.4.x on Ubuntu Dapper (6.0.6).
When I set my /etc/conf.d/net so, that wpa_supplicant is used, I
experience a rather long delay before the DHCP packages are sent
out. On Ubuntu, I do not see such a long delay, so I don't think
that it has something to do with wpa_supplicant in *general*.
When I make Gentoo use WEP directly (ie. without the help of wpa_supplicant)
I also do not see a delay. I'm using a
00:06.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. AR5212 802.11abg NIC
(rev 01)
Wifi card, and thus madwifi; madwifi-ng-0.1531.20060427 to be exact.
On Ubuntu, I'm using an older version of madwifi.
Do other also experience a long (ie. ~30 seconds) delay when
starting wpa_supplicant? How can I find out, what's happening
during this delay?
/etc/conf.d/net:
config_ath0=( "dhcp" )
dhcpcd_ath0="-t 25"
mode_ath0="managed"
fallback_ath0=( "192.168.1.60/24" )
fallback_route_ath0=( "default via 192.168.1.1" )
preferred_aps=( "MeinVerschlossenesNetz" )
modules=( "wpa_supplicant" )
wpa_supplicant_ath0="-Dmadwifi"
wpa_timeout_ath0=60
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf:
ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant
ctrl_interface_group=0
update_config=1
eapol_version=1
ap_scan=1
fast_reauth=1
network={
ssid="MeinVerschlossenesNetz"
psk=bf91a35[...]
