What is needed to inplement a AP support in a driver?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I recently found that now ath5k supports AP mode.
I also found that most of the work is now done in userspace.

Since many drivers including my IWL3945 support sending beacons for IBSS
(strictly speaking userspace can send them too, but this is  sub
optimal), what else driver must support for AP?

Sending to several stations ? (IBSS already has this), have several
virtual devices (this is optional feature), what else?

Why iwl3945 still doesn't support AP mode?

If I patch it to support it (just add ap to list of allowed modes) will
it work? (I soon anyway try out....)

Best regards,
