I just upgraded wpa_supplicant from 2.5 to 2.6 (latest version AFAIK)
and restarted it but still no luck:
Jan  4 17:01:19 pcxav kernel: [2941466.617276] wlx7cdd90463ef8: aborting authentication with 5c:33:8e:56:78:d3 by local choice (Reason: 3=DEAUTH_LEAVING) 
Do you know which kernel should I run to have the fix ?
