hey ben,

i've set everything up and have all the routing working etc etc. it
seems as tho' there is one last issue i'm hoping you can point me in
the right direction with.

When the device i'm working on boots i've got hostapd starting up with
two VAP's (vap0 and vap1).  when i connect to on AP everything goes
well and i can send and receive traffic, however when i disconnect and
reconnect to the other AP it seems as tho' the client connection
hangs.

Inspecting syslog shows all the dhcp information  for the 1st
connection, however there is nothing in syslog for the 2nd connection.

have you seen this, or have an idea why it may happen by chance?

Make sure both APs are configured on the same channel in hostapd?

An example of two of my hostapd config files are below, in case that helps:

If you still have no luck, please send output of:

ifconfig -a

route -n

tail -200 /var/log/messages

dmesg

on your VAP machine.

Thanks,
Ben
