Subject: iwlwifi WPA-TKIP crypto failure after group rekeying
Date: Mon, 27 Feb 2012 05:33:22 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1330320802.8460.105.camel@deadeye> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 583 bytes --]

Several Debian users (cc'd) have reported a regression in iwlagn in
Linux 3.1, not fixed in 3.2.  The full bug log is at:

http://bugs.debian.org/651199

To summarise, a WPA-TKIP managed connection stops passing traffic and
the kernel log shows the message "WPA: Group rekeying".  This apparently
doesn't happen if the connection is in heavy use at the time or with
module parameter swcrypto=1.  WPA2 is not affected either.

Ben.

Q.  Which is the greater problem in the world today, ignorance or apathy?
A.  I don't know and I couldn't care less.
