Hi, the ar9170 is not advertising its AP feature. However, hacking in the bit allows me to run an AP on my D-Link DWA 160A with the sources of yesterday's wireless-testing. Works mostly fine so far, just device startup (firmware loading?) is sometimes a bit fragile, and rate control seems to jump more than needed when the connection gets worse. There was some telling the multicast transmission would not work, but I just tested it and cannot confirm this. Did something change or does a specific multicast scenario still fail? Otherwise I would like to see AP mode enabled in the ar9170 so that it works without modifying kernel sources. Would post a patch then. Jan
