To be compatible with mac80211 following commit 3fc7826b95521
(mac80211: only create default STA interface if supported), rtl8180
needs to set NL80211_IFTYPE_STATION in interface_modes.

John,

This bug has now started to affect users of 2.6.28-git mainline. Did
it get lost, or has it already been push upstream?

Thanks with that the interface appears again.

Of course it still goes quickly to 1Mbit/s.
