I built a small Linux system based on Buildroot. I'd like to configure Buildroot and hostapd so that the machine works as a WPA2 access point. Unfortunately, my laptop (the client) cannot connect. hostapd is printing the following line and afterwards there is some silence (~5sec) until the client disconnects.

WPA: pairwise key handshake completed (RSN)

The linux system uses a wireless card with a Atheros AR5212 chip (with the ath5k driver)

hostapd.conf:

interface=wlan0
driver=nl80211
ssid=meshtrix
channel=1
hw_mode=g
wpa=3
wpa_passphrase=mtmt123123
wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
wpa_pairwise=TKIP
rsn_pairwise=CCMP
macaddr_acl=0
auth_algs=1
ignore_broadcast_ssid=0
logger_syslog=-1
logger_syslog_level=2
logger_stdout=-1
logger_stdout_level=1
debug=0
dump_file=/tmp/hostapd.dump
ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd
ctrl_interface_group=0

Does anyone has an idea why the client cannot connect successfully?
