All,
Anyone knows how to setup Atheros USB wifi card(TP-LINK WN821N) as AP
mode on the linux (Ubuntu 11.10)? I have tested below commands, but
failed:
mypromp#iwconfig

Mode:Managed Access Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=20 dBm
Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off

mypromp#/wlanconfig ath create wlandev wlan0 wlanmode ap
wlanconfig: ioctl: Operation not supported
mypromp# lsmod
