It worked without changing the configuration when I run both without debugging. I didn't have time to analyze it. I remember that Sam once mentioned that Windows stations are unable to associate with FreeBSD AP when hostapd is run in debug mode, because debug made the AP's timing less precise or something. Maybe the last changes make the FreeBSD station also less tolerant? Michal
