Sure it works, but not *well*. rum CAVEATS The rum driver supports automatic control of the transmit speed in BSS mode only. Therefore the use of a rum adapter in Host AP mode is dis- couraged. ural CAVEATS The ural driver supports automatic control of the transmit speed in BSS mode only. Therefore the use of an ural adapter in Host AP mode is dis- couraged. everything else USB, no hostap.
