The upgrade went fine and the single access point setup I had before works fine on wlan0. I'm trying to set up a second access point for an "insecure" network. I am able to create and configure the wlan1 interface and clients can see the SSID and associate to the network. However the access point is unable to send traffic over the interface (the 103 network below): stealth# ping 192.168.103.240 PING 192.168.103.240 (192.168.103.240): 56 data bytes ping: sendto: Network is down Interestingly, it can receive traffic just fine. DHCP, for instance: stealth# tcpdump -i wlan1 tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode listening on wlan1, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 68 bytes 10:35:32.557438 IP 0.0.0.0.bootpc > 255.255.255.255.bootps: BOOTP/DHCP, Request [|bootp] 10:35:36.558022 IP 0.0.0.0.bootpc > 255.255.255.255.bootps: BOOTP/DHCP, Request [|bootp] etc. dhcpd receives and acts on the requests but is unable to send replies: Jul 22 10:11:13 stealth dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:1b:77:9d:ab:ba (jnielsengl1830) via wlan1 Jul 22 10:11:13 stealth dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 192.168.103.240 to 00:1b:77:9d:ab:ba (jnielsengl1830) via wlan1 Jul 22 10:11:13 stealth dhcpd: send_packet: Network is down The problem seems to follow the second hostap device configured (e.g. wlan1). I swapped the networks and the insecure one worked propery and the "old" network stopped working. I'm trying to determine if this is a misconfiguration on my part, a software bug or a hardware limitation. I've tested with ipfw turned off via sysctl and with and without hidessid and bgscan on both interfaces.
