Hi, people! ;) I can be an active beta-tester for ath5k in AP mode, because i really need this functionality on my HomeServer %)
Now I have Jetway NC92-330-LF motherboard, D-Link DWA-520 PCI WiFi: lspci 02:01.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR5212/AR5213 Multiprotocol MAC/baseband processor (rev 01) I don't know why, but earlier lspci give me information about AR5001X+ chip. At this time I compile compat-wireless-2.6 (2009-03-11) module with AP-mode patch. I use hostapd 0.6.8 and my AP work ugly: ping about 100ms, strange timeouts, many unsuccessful connect attempts from notebook, etc...
