Jorjin wl1273 Module running on a Linux based embedded system.
The Wifi driver is taken from WL1271 Linux SDK v3.0.01.06-WL6.1.6.3.
Wpa Supplicant version 0.5.7
WE do not see any issues when connecting to personal networks.
When we try to connect to PEAP enabled Enterprise network, it take a couple of minutes to get connected. And some times does not connect at all
WE have narrowed the where the maximum time is taken and the it is listed below.
Step 1 --> Auth done and Associated
Step 2 --> EAPOL - Start ( Wl1273 station to AP )
Step 3 --> EAP-Request ( Identity AP --> Station )
The next step is the problem
Step 4 --> WPA Supplicant does send the response Identity. This data is also sent to Wl1273 hardware. However, when we capture with wireshark sniffer, we do not see the response going to AP. AP and station are placed very close to each other. Also, we checked the logs in the Access Point and it has not received this response. We are unable to confirm whether wl1273 FW is sending out the response.
At this stage, WPA-Supplicant timesout after 30 secs and starts the Auth and Association process again.
This continues for 2 -3 times and then 3rd or 4th time, connection succeeds.
We are simply clueless on the above. We also not sure how to confirm that wl1273 firmware is indeed sending out the response.
I was referring through the Known issues for this release and I came across the below
Headline | Connection establishment may delay up to 60 seconds when working with AES/TLS/PEAP/CCKM. |
Internal numbering | MCS00079615 |
Description/Scenario | Connection establishment may delay up to 60 seconds when working with
AES/TLS/PEAP/CCKM. |
Is the issue what we are seeing today related to the above bug .
Would greatly appreciate if we can get help on how to resolve this. We are having enough Wireless sniffer and Wpa_supplicant logs. I can attach if it would help.
