Client reboots, can't reconnect for 5-8 minutes?

[Frank Rizzo]

Hey guys,

This is something that I'm observing, and I'm hoping it's been seen  
before, and there's a simple solution.

I have hostap setup and running, with freeradius.  I connect to the server  
with an android tablet.

The 1st connection after a fresh reboot of the server, and the tablet  
connects IMMEDIATELY, and works fine.  If I reboot the tablet, it can't  
connect to the server for a period of time.  (Most recent tests were 5,  
and 8 minutes).  After this time has elapsed, it connects quickly, and  
works fine.  I assumed it was a long inactivity timeout being set, and  
hostap was assuming that the tablet was still connected, and refusing to  
allow it to connect again.  So, I added ap_max_inactivity=30.  Figuring it  
takes 45 seconds for the tablet to reboot, the records should be clean  
when it go around to trying to reconnect.

THIS DIDN'T SOLVE IT.

So, I must be missing something.  Any help?
