Same problem here. If I use my WiFi as a normal interface, no issues at all. I have wired ethernet and use this as a hotspot for some devices and once every second I see:

When running as AP I would like to disable periodic scanning. cat /etc/lsb-release DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu DISTRIB_RELEASE=20.10 DISTRIB_CODENAME=groovy DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 20.10" Happened on 20.04 as well. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1824118 Title: wpa_supplicant executes hundreds of failed atempts in a second To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wpa/+bug/1824118/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
