Subject: carl9170-driver usable as AccessPoint
Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2011 10:18:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110823081829.203150@gmx.net> (raw)
Hello,
I am trying to set up an Accesspoint using the Fritz!WLAN USB Stick N with the carl9170-1.9.4 driver. The system runs on a 3.0-rc2 kernel.
When trying to use hostapd-0.8, I get following error message:
"nl80211: Failed to set interface wlan1 into AP mode"
Can you you give me a hint if there is something wrong in my setup ?
Or is AP- usage not supported in the carl9170 driver?
Is there another way (or maybe driver) which can set the wifi-stick into master mode ?
Louis
