Can anyone point me to a PCIe (or possibly USB) WiFi NIC that supports hostap, that I can actually buy? Link to Amazon UK or similar appreciated. I believe the best choice may be something based on the Qualcomm Atheros AR9380. Finding a card for sale that says it's base on this chip is, however, proving difficult. They're all "super-fast" or "mega-fast" or "ultra-fast" but the silicon doesn't feature in the description. If you know of a card but you're not sure it will probably be connected using the ath driver, or run ifconfig and see if HOSTAP is one of the flags. Any pointers much appreciated. Thanks, Frank.home | help
