Hi Jouni,

I am using the hostapd driver released on 2002-10-12 for WLAN AP with Linksys WPC11 \
cards. While moving between two APs it is observed that the number of times \
reassociation request comes is not constant, sometimes more than one reassociation \
request comes when we move the STA to new AP area. 

Though the new AP shows that the STA has associated with it , the STA shows the MAC \
address of the old AP for several seconds before showing the new APs MAC address. Is \
it ok to have multiple reassociation requests? How can we detect, at the hostap, that \
the STA is finally associated to it? 

The distance between two APs is approximately 40 feet . Are the multiple \
re-association requests due to this?

Please reply,

Regards,

Mohit Bajpai
