Trying to get wpa to work with the madwifi drivers. I have been able to get the madwifi drivers to work with my NIC and have verifiyed WEP and the master (ap) mode. When I load and configure the hostapd daemon I notice there is no ath0ap device. Does the daemon not work with some madwifi devices? I have tested wpa using a differnet NIC and verifyed the config.

Thanks Eric and Charles for the DWL 520 rev e bug fix.

##### hostapd configuration file ##############################################
# Empty lines and lines starting with # are ignored

# AP netdevice name (without 'ap' prefix, i.e., wlan0 uses wlan0ap for
# management frames); ath0 for madwifi
interface=ath0

# In case of madwifi driver, an additional configuration parameter, bridge,
# must be used to notify hostapd if the interface is included in a bridge. This
# parameter is not used with Host AP driver.
#bridge=br0

# Driver interface type (hostap/wired/madwifi/prism54; default: hostap)
driver=madwifi
