Hi!

I am facing very strange issue - for some reason wpa_supplicant hands after
associating connection with AP. It doesn't hang immediately - but after some
time (amout a minute or so).

I tried to run it as

wpa_supplicant -ddd -i wlan1 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf 

and in logs I don't see any errors:

What may be wrong there?

Thank you in advance!
