Hi,
I used hostapd and iw tools to create a AP+MP in November 2010. (may be my
command is obsolete)
this is the command I ran and I skip the route command part
-----------------------------------------------------------------
sudo apt-get
install hostapd
#reboot after install hostapd
sudo ifconfig
wlan0 down
sudo iw
dev wlan0 del
sudo iw
phy phy0 interface add mesh0 type mp mesh_id meshid1
sudo iw
phy phy0 set channel 6
sudo ifconfig
mesh0 192.168.2.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
sudo cp
/etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf.backup
sudo vim
/etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
#The modifications made to /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf were
shown at below
#interface=wlan1
#driver=nl80211
#ssid=hoho
#hw_mode=g
#channel=11
sudo hostapd
-dd /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
#-dd option for debug mode
#Configuration file: /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
#ctrl_interface_group=0
#...
#Mode: IEEE 802.11g
Channel: 11 Frequency: 2462 MHz
#Using interface wlan1 with hwaddr f0:7d:68:c4:d8:37 and
ssid 'hoho'
#wlan1: Setup of interface done.
#when message “Setup of interface done.”,
# CTRL C to stop the executing command (hostapd -dd
/etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf)
# iwlist mesh0 scanning to check whether this AP was set up
properly
#-B option is execute hostapd in background
#ssid will not be set even after –dd option ran
sudo hostapd
-B /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
#Configuration file: /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
#Using interface wlan1 with hwaddr f0:7d:68:c4:d8:37 and
ssid 'hoho'
sudo ifconfig
wlan1 192.168.3.1
#check whether the interface wlan1 in master mode
iwconfig
wlan1
