Subject: hwcrypt issue with rt73usb
Date: Sat, 08 Jan 2011 12:55:36 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D2850B8.7080107@gmx.net> (raw)

Hi

I use a USB WLAN Stick (model: TP-LINK TL-WN321G) with hostapd.
With kernel26-2.6.36 this setup is not working anymore.
The interface is up and if I try to connect with another client
WPA handshake also seems to work, but the IP configuration via DHCP fails.

After downgrading to kernel26-2.6.35 the connection works fine again.

On #linux-wireless it was suggested to test with nohwcrypt and indeed after

     modprobe rt73usb nohwcrypt=1

the connection worked fine again under kernel26-2.6.36.
