Following up on this discussion: Ath10k: the dreadful bug "deauthenticated due to inactivity (timer DEAUTH/REMOVE)" - #11 by huj3r
I've got OpenWrt 22.05.03 running on two Linksys WRT1900ACS routers. I've got "Disable Inactivity Polling" and "Disassociate on Low Acknowledgement" unchecked, so polling should be taking place but in spite of that the WDS Client keeps on dropping the connection to the WDS AP due to:
[ 2807.808995] phy0-sta0: disassociated from 60:38:e0:db:af:83 (Reason: 4=DISASSOC_DUE_TO_INACTIVITY)
I know that the idle timeout polling is at fault because if I decrease the value of "Station inactivity limit" to 1 minute, I start getting disconnects at this frequency.
I understand that I can work around this problem by increasing the timeout to a large value, but I'd like to know why the polling isn't reseting the timer.
How can I debug this further? Is this a known issue for WDS configurations?
Thank you.
