Hello,

I'm wondering if there's a reason default/example hostapd.conf is not installed on target?
IMHO it would be pretty convenient to have that config as a starting point.
Otherwise user has to create it manually from scratch.

Technically this is just a matter of:

If there's no real reason to not have this I'll send a patch happily.
