Hello all This is my first post here. Thank you for the great work related to the hostapd software witch have a lot of futures found only in professional wifi router/AP. Even if Hostapd is a great software it can't work without the proper hardware and the glue between them are the software driver / firmware, as a working chain. Unfortunately finding information related to this working chain on Internet is an adventure... many times even if the info is correct is outdated for very old chipsets. So in my case I started testing with chipset rtl8812au from the info found on Internet seems to be a supported chipset. Wrong... after compiling multiple sources I found only one that is only partially working in monitor mode and injection: https://github.com/astsam/rtl8812au Even if the hardware chipset supports 40 Mhz or 80 Mhz channels the driver don't and this is only one example :( Trying to use a 5Ghz AP with 20 Mhz is funny at least... I found a link at https://w1.fi/hostapd/ related to supported wireless cards/drivers but http://wireless.kernel.org/en/developers/Documentation/mac80211 is not working. Practically there is no know list of chipsets + open source drivers related to hostapd... at least for the public like me. Please update the previous links. Thanks. _______________________________________________ Hostap mailing list Hostap@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/hostap
