It is probably because you are asking it to do two very similar things with the one mac address. I don't see any good reason to have an ap and a mesh point on the one mac. They are two very different things in practice.

The error message "SIOCSIFFLAGS: Name not unique on network" would show up. Therefore I couldn't set up an AP applying hostapd and a mesh point at the same time with only one physical wireless card. It seems meaningless to use two wireless card, too. Can anybody tell me what to do?
