What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. device profile auto, enable wifi encryption, enable Access Control
2. start it up 
3. I log on with windows 7 laptop.  

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect to be prompted for a passphrase, but instead it logs on and begins 
tethering w/o asking for passphrase.

Please provide any additional information below.
I've tried the generic device types also, but no joy.

This issue isn't about the feature access control per se.  It's really about 
turning on encryption.  I've tried several other tether products and the 
encryption works on none of them either.  The only clue given by any of the 
other tethers was that Barnacle reported it got an error setting KEY_MANAGEMENT 
to NONE. So this appears to be a problem specific to the Samsung Galaxy 
Centura.  I've tried each of the existing Samsung device types and none of the 
work properly for this device either.
The Access Control toggle doesn't seem to work either, but I can live with this 
and it really should be left out of the "steps to reproduce the problem" above. 
 The product does tether but won't encrypt and ask for the passphrase.

The Centura can't use ipa_supplicant and w/o ipa_supplicant encrption doesn't 
work.  Access Control works fine.
