Hi,
I bought a MT7612 for my BPI R2 board. Acces point configuration works perfectly with one SSID.
If I understand wifi board specifications, it seems to support multiple AP (for a total of 8):
valid interface combinations: * #{ IBSS } <= 1, #{ managed, AP, mesh point, P2P-client, P2P-GO } <= 8, total <= 8, #channels <= 1, STA/AP BI must match, radar detect widths: { 20 MHz (no HT), 20 MHz, 40 MHz, 80 MHz }
When I try to add new SSID with bss option on hostapd configuration file I have the following error :
... nl80211: Create interface iftype 3 (AP) nl80211: Ignored event (cmd=7) for foreign interface (ifindex 12 wdev 0x0) nl80211: New interface wlp1s0_1 created: ifindex=12 nl80211: Add own interface ifindex 12 (ifidx_reason -1) nl80211: if_indices[16]: 9(-1) 12(-1) Could not set interface wlp1s0_1 flags (UP): Device or resource busy nl80211: Remove interface ifindex=12 nl80211: if_indices[16]: 9(-1) nl80211: if_indices[16]: 9(-1) Failed to add BSS (BSSID=00:50:56:00:00:34) wlp1s0_1: Flushing old station entries nl80211: flush -> DEL_STATION wlp1s0 (all) ...
Interface alias seems to not be started by kernel.
Anyone have test multiple SSID on this wifi board ? Is kernel drivers MT76x2e support it ?
FYI: I put interface alias on /etc/network/interfaces with allow-hotplug directive with ip address and netmask. I tried different MAC address for bssid option.
