WLAN hostapd: Client disconnects

F

fthoma

Hello,

I want to use my FreeBSD box as an WLAN access point. I bought a D-Link DWL-G122 (if_rum.ko) and configured hostapd.
When i connect with wpa_supplicant it disconnects immediately after the connection is idle for about 1 second. It re-connects again if i do a ping request but it takes like forever.
When i permanently send ping requests to the FreeBSD box (or another server) the connection is hold.
Any ideas how i can prevent wpa_supplicant from disconnecting?

wpa_supplicant log
Code: 
fry ~# wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 -c /root/etc/netcfg/leela.conf

Have you fixed the problem?
I have the same problem. I used ath with no problem. I keep every thing the same, just replace ath0 with rum0. The client can connect the ap, but very soon, the ap crashed.
Code: 
Entropy harvesting: interrupts ethernet point_to_point kickstart

This may be another problem because I screwed up with mergemaster when I make installworld.
I copied /etc from another computer which is i386. This one is amd64.
 
I read on the internet says rum and 2cpu FreeBSD crashes. I give up rum and tried malo. But malo works only as a client no access point.
 
I was running FreeBSD access point for a couple of months. I am using TP-LINK TL-WN321G USB stick as the AP. The connection drops off every 5 to 10 minutes. I have to repair in Windows to fix it. Now I am recompiling the kernel to see if it is fixed or not.
