Hello,
Is it possible for one station to get multiple ip addresses from AP/Wireless
router by dhcp? I had tried to add one or more virtual interface for
phy0 (wlan0, wlan1, wlan2,etc), but only wlan0 can get ip address from AP.
the following is the steps:
/bin/wpa_supplicant -ddd -iwlan0 -Dnl80211 -c/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf -B
/bin/wpa_cli -i wlan0 -p /wlan0
>add_network
>set_network 0 ssid "APabc"
>set_network 0 psk "1111111"
>enable_network 0
iw wlan0 interface add wlan1 type station 4addr on
ip link set wlan1 up
dhcpcd -ABKL wlan0 #works, can get ip
dhcpcd -ABKL wlan1 #cannot work

I doubt that chipset is going to support multiple stations.
Use ath9k and you should have more success.

What driver are you using? I'm not sure anything other than ath9k
can do this feature. Ath5k probably works, and definitely worked
at one time. Ath10k supports this to some degree, and will have more
support in the future.
You typically have to disable hardware crypt to make this work.
Thanks,
Ben

It definitely does not.

I use bcm4329 chipset and it don't have "Disable HW encryption" options.
any suggestion for this is appreciated, thanks very much.
