 Hello!
 
 I'm not sure, but the problem with wpa_supplicant occurs on FreeBSD 8.0 stable
 with recent sources. The problem occurs only with if_ath driver (with if_rum
 no such problem occurs).
 
 The symptoms are - no network packets are transferred after group key
 renegotiation occurs. restarting wpa_supplicant helps.
 
 The only workaround I found for now is to setup AP with wpa_group_rekey=1800
