Dear all,
I am using the carl9170 interface from the 2.6.39.2 kernel with the
newest carl9170 firmware. I have set-up an AP with hostapd. Everything
is working so far:

I am now trying to create an additional virtual intereface to connect
wireless to my router as described on:
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Documentation/iw/vif/
with
iw dev wlan0 interface add wlan1 type station
However, ifconfig does not list the additional wlan1 interface. According to
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/carl9170#Multiple_Interfaces
this should be supported. What am I doing wrong? Any additional logs
etc. required to investigate?
Thank you very much for your support.
Regards,
Alex
