1 Hi,
2
3 I'm trying to set up my laptop to be a wireless access point. It has
4 an iwl3945 card. I followed the "Atheros Ath5k Wireless Access Point"
5 article on gentoo-wiki.com[1] before realizing that it was Atheros
6 specific.
7
8 Part of the setup uses hostapd[2]. Looking at this, it's not
9 immediately clear that iwlwifi is supported.
10
11 Does anyone know whether it's possible to use hostapd with iwlwifi
12 drivers? Is there an alternative access point software I can use?
13
14 Thanks,
15 Mike
