After a random interval (hours) our wifi clients gets disconnected after this log entry:

Some magic crypto parameter is wrong. :( That's the best non-technical explanation. The message is being produced by FreeRADIUS (via OpenSSL), when it tries to decode the packet from the client. It means that the packet is bad, and that OpenSSL won't continue to run the TLS setup. There really isn't anything you can do here. Just have the user try again.
I have tried to search for others with this issue, but can't find much that seems related, I have set `tls_max_version = "1.2"` (to not trigger any tls1.3 bugs) but the issue still occurs.
FreeRADIUS doesn't use TLS 1.3. And the EAP-TLS transports for TLS 1.3 aren't yet defined. So no supplicant on the market implements TLS 1.3. Alan DeKok.
