Hi

has somebody "magic settings" to get Apple mobile-crap
working with hostapd instead permanently interrupt the
connection?

other mobile devices are working fine all the time up to 80 Mbit
netto and only recent iPhone / iPad is running in trouble

no these are not my devices but my AP :-(

the "iphone"-block from my "hostapd.conf" below was a try after
google around the world, other devies are still happy but the
apple crap is still not impressed by the change

Ath9k and interrupted connections? Kernel 3.3.1 (vanilla) has a bug which can
cause this, see:

http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg88228.html

This is fixed in 3.3.2 and above.

not generally, only Aple Devices (iPhone / iPad)
no 3.3.1 -> 3.3.2-1.fc16.x86_64

i saw the ath9k changes on kernel.org and
hoped this is the reason, but no :-(

i wonder that apple-tv and IMac are working fine

if it would be my devices or i would be permitted
i would throw the apple-devices as far as i can
but that is no option :-(
