Someone reports that the station mode is not working for him in OpenWRT with ath9k driver after the last update of compat-wireless in OpenWRT. It was reported in https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/6712 probably this is not an issue in the ath9k/b43 driver but in some other part of OpenWRT. Please try if it helps using an older version of compat-wireless or using an older version of the hostapd/wpa-supplicant combination. (Just go back some revisions in the svn for that directories) Hauke
