[ath9k-devel] ath9k: Virtual interface as AP

["\"Lorna González\"" <lorna.glez@gmx.net>]

Hello,

After trying to build two virtual interfaces, one as a STA and another one as AP on mac80211 with an AR928X, creating a new interface with:

iw phy phy0 interface add wlan1 type __ap

I got a new interface called wlan1_rename, the one I used to build the AP interface.

Running hostapd I finally got following:

But no other stations are able to see this Virtual AP and no more frames are sent from the VAP. 

If someone ever try something similar please let me know. 

Thanks
