He's not entirely wrong.

Take my two cards, for example. Neither my AR5008 PCI, nor my AR5008 
PCIe card are really working in AP mode. Sure, they can be set to AP 
mode and hostapd starts, too. You can even transmit stuff, but after at 
most 5 minutes, both cards will "lock up" or something like this. Every 
client gets disassociated and no reconnect is possible anymore.

So, while AP mode is supported with that chipset, it doesn't work that 
well (or for those restrictions, at all.)

I think it's legit for him to ask, or put otherwise: ask for some 
definitely known as working and stable chipsets/cards.

Just my two cents.

Best regards,


Mihai
