If i'm not mistaken https://w1.fi/cgit/hostap/commit/?id=18206e02c540f0a379db507b4ecc22c8855c7acf disabled the ability to leave the beacon interval as-is / use the driver default. When attempting to run a card in sta/ap mode I ran into a problem where the ap would not start, failing to set the beacon interval. The card was already connected as a station, and presumably was using a different beacon interval, and looking at "iw phy" one of my available modes: total <= 2, #channels <= 1, STA/AP BI must match >From cfg80211: * @beacon_int_infra_match: In this combination, the beacon intervals * between infrastructure and AP types must match. This is required * only in special cases. From: nl80211 / hostapd-2.3/src/drivers/driver.h: * beacon_int - Beacon interval for IBSS or 0 to use driver default If not reverting this implicit behavior, perhaps could there be a way to explicitly use the already set beacon interval? _______________________________________________ Hostap mailing list Hostap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/hostap
