Subject: mac80211 does not support WPA when used with wext
Date: Sat, 31 Mar 2007 11:36:12 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <460E2B8C.4030002@gmail.com> (raw)
Hello
While testing the iwlwifi driver I noticed that the mac80211 does
provide a wext interface but does not support wpa with it.
Why? Is this a known bug/limitation.
And if yes any plans to fix it? Fedora 7 uses mac80211 by default which
results into networkmanager and (unpatched)wpa_supplicant is useless for
people who use WPA/WPA2.
P.S: please CC me
