Ok, if You use hostAP you should have WiFi card that allows to run in AP |
| 14 |
mode - most of new cards have it. But when hostAP was written, only |
| 15 |
couple chipsets have ability to run in AP. If You cannot run on RT/RA |
| 16 |
link card with hostAP, there is some probability, that this card is not |
| 17 |
supported with hostAP packege. I've having RT/RaLink card on PCMCIA but, |
| 18 |
this card can run in AP mode under windows only with WINDOWS DRIVERS. |
| 19 |
Simple: hostap is not packege for Your card. |
