I wonder if a short list of access mode capable devices or chipsets that are known to work well for atleast 24 hours or maybe 60 days would be a good addition to the access point section of the faq (6.13) especially with OpenBSD being such a good system to use as an access point.
In the mailing lists sthen suggests pci atheros are more stable so perhaps a couple of those device names could go in and then whatever particular chipsets or even driver type that is thought most reliable in hostap mode could go in too? For example I was considering trying a rum driver and was completely unsure about it despite some mailing list searches and then read the man page caveat section and so won't. I guess atheros was right but I should look into a card type or another chipset. I'm sure many use wireless a lot more than me so if you've had a reliable experience with OpenBSD as an wpa2 access point then perhaps you could list it here or look up your devices chipset at https://wikidevi.com/wiki/Main_Page and list that.
