Hi I´ve been using an Atheros 9285 chipset in a 2.6.32-32 kernel with ath9k and two virtual interfaces, one in ad-hoc mode and the other in master mode using hostapd. That configuration worked fine, with some computers connected to the Acces Point and others to the IBSS running in the ad-hoc interface. The only problem was that when bringing up the IBSS (using iw) the interface using hostapd stopped sending beacons, but as far as i understood all kept working thanks to the probe requests and responses.
Then i upgraded the ath9k driver using compat wireless-2.6.32.16 and all worked like before. But when i used the ath9k driver of compat wireless-2.6.39-1 i couldn ´t bring the IBSS up when the hostapd was running (i could bring the ad hoc interface up, but not the IBSS with "iw ibss join"). I´d like to know if this configuration is not supported or will not be supported anymore, and if it could be possible to have the AP beaconing together with an IBSS. Thank you! _______________________________________________ ath9k-devel mailing list ath9k-devel@lists.ath9k.org https://lists.ath9k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath9k-devel
