Hi,

I hava an WP188 Board with an AR9160 based Atheros Card.
I try to use OpenWrt as an AP in my network but I can not find the Wireless Network. Maybe a post of my Network and Wireless config will help.

etc/config/network
config interface loopback
        option ifname   lo
        option proto    static
        option ipaddr   127.0.0.1
        option netmask  255.0.0.0

config interface lan
        option ifname   eth0
        option type     bridge
        option proto    static
        option ipaddr   192.168.0.240
        option netmask  255.255.255.0
        option gateway  192.168.0.1
        option dns      192.168.0.1

etc/config/wireless
config wifi-device  wlan0
        option type     mac80211
        option channel  5

        # REMOVE THIS LINE TO ENABLE WIFI:
        # option disabled 1

config wifi-iface
        option device   wlan0
        option network  lan
        option mode     ap
        option ssid     OpenWrt
        option encryption none

Thanks for your help!

If I start my hostapd i get

root@OpenWrt:~# wifi up
Configuration file: /var/run/hostapd-wlan0.conf
Failed to update rate sets in kernel module
Failed to set CTS protect in kernel driver
Failed to set Short Slot Time option in kernel driver
Could not set preamble for kernel driver
Using interface wlan0 with hwaddr 00:0e:8e:20:09:1a and ssid 'OpenWrt'
Failed to set CTS protect in kernel driver
Failed to set Short Slot Time option in kernel driver

root@OpenWrt:~#

Can this all be caused by ath9k?

ath9k is not stable yet and this is the wrong sub-forum...
