Hello,
I’m having some trouble with the nl80211 driver with hostapd.
I try to make an access point on the board with an Colibri iMX6 DL, on a custom board and custom rootfs/dtb.
My Wifi driver is ok, i can see other networks, but when I change the configuration in hostapd with just the interface, the ssid and passphrase, i get the error :
# /etc/init.d/hostapd start
Starting HOSTAP Daemon: Configuration file: /etc/hostapd.conf
nl80211: Driver does not support authentication/association or connect commands
nl80211 driver initialization failed.
hostapd_free_hapd_data: Interface wlan0 wasn't started
In my kernel, I already choose CONFIG_CFG80211=y, CONFIG_MAC80211=y, CONFIG_LIB80211=y
Thank you for the help.
Regards,
Pierre-Olivier Huard
EDIT : I also test iw (based on the nl80211 driver) and nothing happens when I type iw list.
