By default the out of box hostapd is controlled by: /etc/default/bb-wl18xx https://github.com/RobertCNelson/bb-wl18xx-firmware/blob/master/debian/bb-wl18xx-tether#L341-L377 For your situation, comment out: USE_GENERATED_HOSTAPD=yes #USE_GENERATED_HOSTAPD=yes Then edit: /etc/hostapd.conf to your liking..
