Comment (by tqh):

 I got emailed a very good review of the logs in Swedish, I hope I can
 explain it in English:

 == Good attempt: ==

 }}}


 == Bad attempt: ==

 Problems:
 1. Accesspoint asks for EAPOL version 1.
 2. Accesspoint ask to switch to HT40.
 HT40 requires two spatial streams (two antennas). HT40 with an accesspoint
 that only has one antenna probably leads lost packets, timeout and deauth.
 3. Key length is zero. It may be because of the first problem or bad
 configuration.

 == Recommended configuration to test: ==

 Supported MCS: MCS0->MCS7
 Basic MCS: None selected.
 Authentication Type: WPA2 Personal (WPA2 PSK).
 Cipher: AES (not TKIP)
 Radius: Disabled
 EAP: Disabled
 Static keys: None

 Also make sure that the configuration in Haiku is correct.
