Failed to set beacon parametrers

Open roarc0 opened this issue 9 years ago • 3 comments

I have Alfa NHA running on a RPI2 and it is giving me this problem: Failed to set beacon parametrers The OS is Archlinux ARM - linux 4.4.24-2-ARCH

    Supported interface modes:
         * IBSS
         * managed
         * AP
         * AP/VLAN
         * monitor
         * mesh point
         * P2P-client
         * P2P-GO
         * outside context of a BSS
    .........
    valid interface combinations:
         * #{ managed, P2P-client } <= 2, #{ AP, mesh point, P2P-GO } <= 2,
           total <= 2, #channels <= 1

I should have AP support.. but the second part should tell me something else about that...

FYI, something similar happens to me after a while, not immediately:
