Hi,
I've been unable to activate the p2p feature on my WiFi dongle (which
otherwise works fine).
iwpriv command returns "wlan1 no private ioctls."
I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 with kernel 3.5.0-25 and the WiFi dongle is a
Netgear model wna1000m (driver rtl8192cu).
I've also tried with kernel 3.8.2 with the same result.
Thanks,

P2P is not yet implemented in rtl8192cu. The method is being added to rtlwifi and the PCI-based drivers in patches that are now undergoing tests. They will likely be in kernel 3.10. Once that is done, I will be able to consider P2P for the USB-based driver.

FWIW, the use of iwpriv for things like this has been discontinued. Check the use of iw.
