Yes it does, but this is what I am getting when I try to run wpa_cli in a |
| 13 |
terminal: |

===================================================== |
| 15 |
$ wpa_cli |

wpa_cli v0.6.4 |

ps axf shows: |

Why is it picking up 'ath0' when there are no references to ath0 in |
| 35 |
my /etc/conf.d/net? Both wpa_cli and wpa_gui seem to work fine when I |
| 36 |
define -iwlan1 on the CLI. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
My log shows that wlan0 is renamed to wlan1: |
