Just a question (for Francis): how does the AP work? Have you tried very stressing tests with traffic crossing the AP? We do have problems when the channel is saturated, it seems that the BCM device acting as AP stops sending beacons and the BSS goes down, we need to reconfigure everything when this happens (I mean, stop and restart hostapd and reset ifaces on STAs). The configuration we are trying is built exclusively on BCM+b43 devices running wireless git, one is configured as AP using the patch from Johannes Berg.
I remember a post (from Johannes) where he stated that there are still "problems with beaconing". Is this still true?
