Sorry, I can't help with that, other than pointing to the obvious - how far away from the AP is your laptop? Any concrete walls, ceilings or something like that? Is the pigtail for the antenna properly connected? It's easy to not properly connect those darn little things. Channel 1 should usually not be a problem regarding other WIFI networks - since at least in my neighborhood, everybody seems to be using channel 6 (probably the default on commercial APs).

Are you using WPA? If so, you might want to try adding channel_policy=2 channel=11 in your hostapd.conf (then restart hostapd, and then "ifdown ath0" and "ifup ath0"). Maybe that will solve the issue. > PS: Im using a wlm54g23 in an alixbox (www.pcengines.ch/wlm54g23.htm). > It should support 13 channels in Europe. Is it set to the country code of Germany (I assume Germany due to your email address)? 276 would be the one, I think. But it wouldn't matter for setting channel 11 - that should work no matter what country code is configured.
