Oh, I didn't know that. But that's not suprising as almost all of AP

Sure, it's just lack of time on my part. Any help with documentation
would be appreciated.

> Does AP firmware support plain STA operation?

Yes, but not that well tested.

I fully agree. This should be the first stage.

For the second stage I think we should try improve how to make it easier
to switch between firmwares (see my previous email).
