So, there is no problem what so ever.
The "WPA" (password etc) is ok.
But then :

RADIUS: starting accounting session 665BCC0E11586A5E

Where did that came from ?

[stephenw10]

Because it's configured for WPA Ent I imagine.

I dont know - I have no Radius Server set up.

If Ent means "Enterprise" then its not - its WPA2 with Pre-shared Key and AES

[stephenw10]

Huh, interesting. Checking....

There is nothing in the firewall log from the WLAN interface (wireless network).

When my Android Smartphone connects I see this in wireless log:

and where exactly do you see these statistics? Status \ System Logs \ System \ Wireless connection

Exact there! (Highlighted)

[stephenw10]

Yes I see the same.
You should also see it in Status > Wireless

It took me a moment to realize that the most recent ones were from below. Here's what appears after trying to connect from your phone:

not in the form of a picture, antispam does not allow you to write

I see there:

EAPOL-Key timeout

and I interprete that like the Authentication is not coming from your device - is that smartphone logging in correctly in a other access point?

[stephenw10]

Also I assume if you login from the laptop the logs look the same as we see?

It connects to all other Wi-fi points from the phone without problems.

This is what I see when I connect from my laptop:

[stephenw10]

Possible the phone is restricted to WPA3 only? Other APs you tested against are WPA2?

Currently connected to a wireless network with WPA2-PSK

rtl8192ce

What driver is that using? rtwn(4)? Is that USB or PCI connected?

What does sysctl dev.rtwn.0.hwcrypto show?

[mrkaban]

@stephenw10 said in Wi-Fi: laptop yes, phone no:

sysctl dev.rtwn.0.hwcrypto

If you run "Diagnostics \ Command Prompt" here, then the output:

dev.rtwn.0.hwcrypto: 1

[stephenw10]

Hmm, well I don't think that hardware crypto applies to WPA2 but try disabling that with:
sysctl dev.rtwn.0.hwcrypto=0

Unclear if that applies immediately.

Completed, the output was:

sysctl: oid 'dev.rtwn.0.hwcrypto' is a read only tunable
sysctl: Tunable values are set in /boot/loader.conf

Of course I rebooted and tried. And only after the failure did I read what exactly he was writing.

[stephenw10]

Yup run: echo dev.rtwn.0.hwcrypto=0 >> /boot/loader.conf.local

Then reboot.

As before, it does not pass authentication. He says that the password is incorrect, but it is definitely correct.
