Note that setting an address puts the interface UP implicitly. So you'll want to configure all the wireless bits first, and set the address afterwards! Otherwise, your wireless settings will race the automatic mode/channel selection I described in my other reply from a few minutes ago. So try this something like this instead: media autoselect mediaopt hostap mode 11g chan 1 inet 192.168.42.1 255.255.255.0 or: media autoselect mediaopt hostap mode 11a chan 36 inet 192.168.42.1 255.255.255.0
