Hello,
I've build the driver for ARM6 (RasberryPi B) using kernel version 4.4.8. The driver builds and I can install with modprobe -v 8732bu. A wlan0 interface is created after the driver loads.
I want to use the wlan0 in STATION mode and when I run wpa_supplicant I get the follow message in /var/log/messages

........ followed by repetitions of the above lines.....
The output shows 'start assoc' but the association it ever completes and consequently the wlan0 interface is never brought up.
Is there anything that I can do to overcome this problem? i.e. is there a driver parameter that I can set when 'modprobe-ing' the driver?
