It may not be WEP. I'm seeing similar messages on Prism-based cards (w/o 
WEP). The hostap card seems to default to DS/2Mbps speed (why not 11? no 
clue) - forcing it higher (using ifconfig or wicontrol) results in these 
errors when clients associate.

Is there a way to make hostap cards use DS/11Mbps? I couldn't get it 
work work either via ifconfig or via wicontrol.
