We are currently adjusting Android's wifi tethering to support our Wifi Hardware (Ralink RT2500). Since this driver uses the Linux nl80211 wireless driver framework we currently use hostapd to set the wifi chip into master mode. The problem is that iwconfig is not able to do this (because of nl80211) and Android's netd daemon is also not able to achieve this. The SoftapController uses the private functions of the Broadcom driver which are not supported by our driver. Now, my questions are where does Android do all the EAP Server and WPA Authenticator stuff? Is it done in native code or in java? Where can I find this code? Or is this entirely done by the Broadcom AP Wifi- Firmware?
