[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#968402: Cannot connect in WPA3-sae mode, using WPA2-psk instead

[Jean-Michel Pouré]

Package: network-manager
Version: 1.26.0-1

wpasupplicant	2:2.9.0-13

Dear Maintainer,

When trying to connect to OpenWRT access point running in WPA2/WPA3
compatibility mode, I can only connect in WPA2-psk, not WPA3-sae. 

Connecting in WPA3 from Mac OS X works.

Using nmtui or Network-Manager I need to edit connection settings to
WPA/WPA2 mode. Then Network-Manager claims to connect in WPA3, but I
doubt it is WPA3 as my seeings are only for WPA/WPA2.

The problem was also described here on GITLAB Network-manager:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/NetworkManager/NetworkManager/-/issues/172

It was fixed ten months ago in 1.20.2 but the problem remains.

Kind regards,
