In my case setting ap_scan to 2 doesn't help.
BTW, I got successfull connection some time ago when I
start to use /etc/rc.d/netif start iwi0 instead of manual
running of wpa_supplicant:
defanbook# ifconfig iwi0
iwi0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 213.189.198.75 netmask 0xfffffff0 broadcast 213.189.198.79
ether 00:12:f0:3d:cd:58
media: IEEE 802.11 Wireless Ethernet autoselect mode 11b (DS/11Mbps)
status: associated
ssid ZENON-RADIO channel 11 bssid 00:07:0e:b8:d8:ee
authmode WPA privacy ON deftxkey UNDEF TKIP 2:128-bit TKIP 3:128-bit
txpowmax 100 bmiss 10 protmode CTS roaming MANUAL bintval 100
I wrote bssid value to /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf and run
/etc/rc.d/netif.
Then I drop connection (netif stop iwi0) and tried to start it again.
I got "associated" state in 5-6 minutes.
In rc.conf I have:
ifconfig_iwi0="ssid MY-SSID channel 11 WPA
How can I get "-dd" output from wpa_supplicant started with netif?
It could be interesting.
