   WARNING: This update bumps to rpi-6.6.y linux tree
   See: https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?p=2191175

   'rpi-update' should only be used if there is a specific
   reason to do so - for example, a request by a Raspberry Pi
   engineer or if you want to help the testing effort
   and are comfortable with restoring if there are regressions.

   DO NOT use 'api-update' as part of a regular update process.

   …

   Woohoo, let’s go

     At this stage I have nothing to lose so I am going to see if there is a firmware update…

     My most recent attempt used a fresh Raspberry Pi OS (formerly known as Raspbian) install and I followed the official AP setup instructions, https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/computers/configuration.html#host-a-wireless-network-from-your-raspberry-pi

     I have already thoroughly banged my head against the various hostapd & wpa_supplicant pathways. I have read and tried dozens of forum ‘solutions’.

     An exercise in frustration, a thread.

     In the downtime between never-ending house reno’s I have been tinkering with an old Raspberry Pi 3 B. I am attempting to set it up as an Access Point. At the moment it runs with the old insecure WPA and refuses to connect via RSN.
