Comment (by Marek):
Whoa! I got to the root of the problem...
Thanks Zilvinas for drawing my attention to the AP :) Although it still
seems to be some race condition there.
The box with AP is running debian, and i have following lines in
/etc/network/interfaces:
{{{
iface ath0 inet static
pre-up wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode ap
post-up iwconfig ath0 channel 1; hostapd -B
/etc/hostapd.conf
pre-down killall hostapd
post-down wlanconfig ath0 destroy
}}}
now, when i ran hostapd manually from command line, everythink worked.
This was a surprise. So i addded "sleep 1" before running hostapd:
{{{
post-up iwconfig ath0 channel 1; sleep 1; hostapd -B
/etc/hostapd.conf
}}}
and voila! Everything works now...
Seems like hostapd can't be run immidiately after change of the channel
(maybe some other commands are affected as well)
i'll test it for a few more days and will let you know if this keeps
running ;)
