hi there,
after adrian chadd helped me to get 5ghz running (radio turn on) on debian
6-0-6,
***
aptitude install wireless-regdb crda :)
***
i run into a other problem. i try to install a dual band ap with hostapd but
it doesnt start on runtime. below my config's. when i start it manually it
works (console). does anyone have a brief hint on that?
is there maybe another way to get a multi band ap working without using
hostapd?
thanks a lot,
walter.
i use:
***
alix2d2 board, cf 4gb, debian 6-0-6, kernel 3-6-5, ubiquiti ub-5 wifi card
(ath5k), compex WLM200NX (ath9k)

How do you expect two instances of hostapd to manage wlan1 with different
bands/channels?
Kind regards,
Sven
