Hi
I was trying to set up access point with "Realtek RTL8187" wireless
card on 4.5.
After looking into the manpage I thought it has "mediaopt hostap" capability,
--------
The following hostname.if(5) example creates a host-based access point on
boot:
inet 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 NONE media autoselect \
mediaopt hostap nwid my_net chan 11
--------
but, according to this ...
# ifconfig urtw0 media|grep hostap || echo nope
nope
and this ...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_open_source_wireless_drivers
it simply does not. (sic!)
Are there any plans to add hostap mode to urtw(4) driver ?
May I suggest to delete those lines from the manpage. It misled me.
