Hi guys, once again... Me.....

I'm wandering if BCM43xx actually does support for virtual AP, What i mean for VAP is to bradcast more than one SSID being in AP mode or
AdHoc mode
For example: PUBLIC_SSID for those who want to connect to the AP and
PRIVATE_SSID (for
nodes links with Encryption)
According to dd-wrt it does actually support.
I've tried showing the SSID of one of them and hidding the other one but i
only see and
Can connect just with one. Is about driver issues?, am i doing something wrong?

Thanks again.-

I've tried something similar with 2 mesh interfaces. However, only one can be brought up at a time. Bringing up the second interface yields a "SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not supported". It's probably the test at the beginning of b43_op_add_interface. I haven't any idea what's involved in removing that restriction.

I ran wireshark on dd-wrt w/ multiple ap's. Some sample beacon output is attached.
