hostap mode and wpa-psk with ral(4) problem

[Jacco Braat]

Hi,

more people have problem with ral driver in hostap mode. the maintainer
knows about it and promised to look into it before 6.1 release

authentication is succesfull, but there is a problem with arp and dhcp.

in sys/net80211/ieee80211_input.c (ieee80211_deliver_data) there is some
code to bridge incomming packets to other connected stations. It looks
like the driver does not handle these packets correctly.  

ifconfig wifi0 -apbridge

disables this feature, then you should be able to connect normally
