you shoud set frepue in the hostapd.conf just add channel=6 ok and lost of things can immplient in the hostapd.conf if you keep on use iwconfig command to set frequecny the above all things should complited by iwconfrig ,or when you run hostapd and the hostapd will choose the default channel (channel 1)for the wireless driver 2013/12/1 devendra.aaru <devendra.aaru@xxxxxxxxx>: > Hello, > > I was trying to use my intel wireless device as an AP.
