Wireless AP mode, no WPA

[none]

Hi,

I have a working run0 interface configured as AP. I can connect to it, but it always has no WPA security.

I checked all options for WPA, using AES and defined a pre-shared key. But the network created is always an open one, asks for no key at all.

Is there the desired behavior? I checked all twice, all is left is installing any plugin needed (if any) or to understand it won't work. I tried using different WIFI nics, all the same.

If anyone can help me, thanks :)

Hi,

small update. I saw some messages on the dmesg:

And then I updated /boot/loader.conf.local by adding wlan_ccmp and at least WAN as Wifi client works. Now I will add wlan_amrr and try again when possible.

small udpdate:

problem solved. For the record, to use WIRELESS on opnsense you need to load those modules on /boot/loader.conf.local:

# WLAN
wlan_ccmp_load="YES"
wlan_amrr_load="YES"
wlan_xauth_load="YES"

After those loaded I could have an AP running SSID I chose and that it would have WPA2 passphrase for it. Otherwise, the network would be opened, no password needed.
