Alright, I have done everything you have suggested but when hostapd tries |
| 50 |
to start I am getting this error... |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
penguin ~ # /etc/init.d/hostapd start |
| 53 |
* Starting hostapd... |
| 54 |
Configuration file: /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf |
| 55 |
Failed to set interface wlan0 to master mode. |
| 56 |
nl80211 driver initialization failed. |
| 57 |

| 58 |

| 59 |

| 60 |
[ !! ] |
| 61 |
* ERROR: hostapd failed to start |
| 62 |
|
| 63 |
Do you have any idea why this is happening? |
