Subject: Cannot bring up second VAP on recent kernels?
Date: Mon, 22 Oct 2012 13:20:08 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5085AA78.1080809@candelatech.com> (raw)
Anyone successfully using more than one virtual AP on
3.3 or higher kernels? It works fine for me on 3.0.32,
but my 3.3.8 and 3.5.7 kernels (and a few similar ones)
all fail with errors like this below:
Hardware is ath9k 3x3 9380 NIC.
