This driver supports so called 17 Host AP mode that allows the card to act as an IEEE 802.11 18 access point. 19 20 See <http://hostap.epitest.fi/> for more information about the 21 Host AP driver configuration and tools. This site includes 22 information and tools (hostapd and wpa_supplicant) for WPA/WPA2 23 support. 24 25 This option includes the base Host AP driver code that is shared by 26 different hardware models. You will also need to enable support for 27 PLX/PCI/CS version of the driver to actually use the driver. 28 29 The driver can be compiled as a module and it will be called 30 hostap. 31 32config HOSTAP_FIRMWARE 33 bool "Support downloading firmware images with Host AP driver" 34 depends on HOSTAP 35 help 36 Configure Host AP driver to include support for firmware image 37 download.
