  I don't know.

  No.

  Read the extended debug log (-xX).  Odds are that the successful
authentications take 1-2 seconds from start to finish.  If that's true,
then everything would seem to be working properly.  Look at the
unsuccessful authentications.  If they go on for 1-2 seconds and then
stop, then they're mostly working correctly, too.

  The problem may be in the AP, or in the radio spectrum.  Try a
different AP.
