https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D264238 --- Comment #37 from rkoberman@gmail.com --- I am surprised to see this issue as the initial message showed both 13.1 and 13.0 to be associated with an SSID "WHU-STU". I should have looked more clo= sely as I missed that they are the same SSID with radically different configurations. Both come from the same vendor but, with 13.1, both are set= ting up in a broken manner. "media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet DS/1Mbps mode 11ng" is probably nonsensical. At least it is certainly wrong! DS is obsole= te and has not ben use in year. 1Mbps does make some sense if your are using = DS, but, even then, it's weird. I wish I could look at the ifconfig from when I was at the hotel, but I have not recorded it anywhere. The results of this WPA configured mode is very unlikely to work. I'm guess= ing that the issue is that the APs at your location is using MCS. Bet the hotel= is, too. It's relatively new and I suspect the 13.1 wpa_supplicant is broken in= how it deals with it. My home router does not use it. Only about a half dozen commits, from a quick look, to wpa_supplicant, so bisecting should not take too long, especially since it is in user space. I= f I=20 had access to an AP that used MCS for selection, I'd do it myself, but I do= n't. If you have the interest and the time, it will be fairly simple. (One of the big things you get with git). teh commits of interest are: wpa: Import wpa 2.10.
