Please keep in mind that all I need to do is to disable WPA on the first VAP to make the driver send beacons. Same environment, same software stack - just the setting is different. Therefore I have a hard time believe it is interference we are dealing with. It also is possible that the beacons are sent but garbled on the way out. The ways and means to capture the beacon packets are rather simple: running wireshark on a monitor interface. There is enough room for other reasons why the beacons do not show up. Regards, Marek
