After getting some info from the shorewall list, it sounds like my |
| 13 |
wlan0 is not completely up, even though my laptop can see the network. |
| 14 |
I don't think the laptop is connecting successfully as I originally |
| 15 |
thought it was. |

I'm used to starting /etc/init.d/net.ath0, but with ath5k you're |
| 18 |
supposed to let hostapd start wlan0 without the net.wlan0 initscript. |
| 19 |
How am I supposed to specify an IP address for the router's WLAN? |

| 21 |
Does anyone have ath5k running in master mode? |
