I am trying to connect to a wifi network from a Raspberry Pi 3 (running Raspbian Wheezy) using wpa_supplicant
commands being called through Python scripts. The connection is happening but I am observing random disconnections from wifi, which is resulting in the loss of vital data being failed to upload. I tried debugging the wpa_supplicant
into the log files and I am getting some debug messages which I cant understand. Also, I'm not sure also if its related to the disconnections or not.
Command:
wpa_supplicant -s -B -d -Dnl80211 -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
Not understood debug messages:
