I tried to add my interface using hostapd but I get following: Configuration file: hostapd.conf ioctl[SIOCGIFFLAGS]: No such device Could not read interface flags (wlan1) nl80211 driver initialization failed. wlan1: Unable to setup interface. Segmentation fault My hostapd.conf looks like: interface=wlan1 driver=nl80211 bridge=br0 hw_mode=g channel=5 ssid=VirtualAP auth_algs=1 bss=wlan1 #bssid=00:22:43:21:82:ad If I don?t add a new interface using iw, I wonder how the hostapd creates it. And, in order to function as an AP I also need to configurate the following a priori : 1.Assign IP sudo ifconfig wlan1 192.168.1.1 2.Enable forwarding 3.Eenable masquerading By using wiphys this is normally not a problem since I add a wiphy before initiating hostapd.
