No luck, ifconfig complains about "invalid parameter wlanmode". Can
anybody provide an example rc.conf settings for AP mode?
in /etc/rc.conf – not 100% sure about the latter, but in any case
creating wlan0 and configuring it are separate steps. without the
wlans_ath0 line the rc scripts don't even know they should look for
*_wlan0 variables.
Thank you, I've read rc.conf' man page once more and got it.
Also, check out the docs about hostapd, I think it should (needs to?)
be involved in creating an AP. Again, not sure.
No, hostapd is not necessary.
