Hi again,
i have not found a solution yet.
the logs files grow into 400 MB on busy days, i created
some reprots and saw that many client would be
authenticated anywehre from 15 to 20 times a Millisecond,
and on other days 100 times a day (which is acceptable)

has anyone faced this problem, where the access point keep
requesting access that many times???

any help would be appreciated.

thank you,.
John
