I should note if using compat-wireless you'll be using newer drivers and hostapd from git will likely take advantage of any new features introduced. Can't also say if the 0.6.9 release you are using might have issues expected with using bleeding edge code so CC'ing hostap mailing list in case someone there does. > I don't see anything in > daemon.log relating to hostapd other than the usual.

Just about one every other day, on average. Can you still share the kernel log?
