set up your wireless as you like it in GUI.
Then edit /tmp/{$if}_setup.sh ( {$if} = your interface name like ath0
or wi0 or whatever) and find the line that starts
hostapd/wpa_supplicant (should look somthing like: /usr/sbin/hostapd
-B /var/etc/hostapd_{$if}.conf and change it to somthing like
/usr/sbin/hostapd -dd /var/etc/hostapd_{$if}.conf
-B = run in background
-dd = debug mode
Then from CLI (ssh in or whatever) run /tmp/ath0_setup.sh and do your debugging.

Remeber if you change anything in GUI the /tmp/ath0_setup.sh file will
be overwritten and you have to edit it again.
Also when you exit debug mode, hostapd will stop, so you need to enter
gui and save changes on the wireless setup page to rewrite the startup
script and start wireless again.

Good luck :-)

How can I get detailed debug data from hostapd? I've been using pfSense also

I have some trouble with wireless and debugging can help me to understand
the problem better.

Thanks!
