Wi-Fi not connecting (well, getting instantly deauthed due to AP-STA-POSSIBLE-PSK-MISMATCH
after connecting)
is apparently a relatively
common problem with IoT devices.
And most people seem to point to ESP8266-based ones.
Well, Iโve never had a problem with ESP, but today Iโve been setting up an
RTL8711AF based device (Xiaomi qmi.powerstrip.v1
) and it was failing just like that.
Turns out this device just completely fails when 802.11w Management Frame Protection is on (even optionally). Ugh. Thanks Realtek.
