Hi,

    I am currently trying to use rstp protocol (using rstpd ) over
wireless interfaces (ath9k) and I've noticed some strange hostapd
behaviour.

    Everything seems to work great with wired Ethernet devices.

    this is what I do : 
	- I have configured an AP (with hostapd), and it works perfectly
(beacons were sent)
    	- ifconfig wlanx down
	- ifconfig wlanx up

    after the ifconfig up, the wlanx does not send any beacons although
clients are perfectly able to associate with (WPA-SUPPLICANT does an
active scan).

    Have you ever encounter such issue ?

    Thanks in advance,
