Hello,
I am trying to setup a wireless hotspot with my xs36v barbone. Unfortun=
ately when I start hostapd, I have got the following error:
hostapd -dd /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
Configuration file: /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
nl80211: Add own interface ifindex 3
nl80211: Add own interface ifindex 4

Could not set interface mon.wlan0 flags: Operation not possible due to =
RF-kill
nl80211: Remove interface ifindex=3D8
nl80211: Failed to set interface wlan0 into AP mode
nl80211 driver initialization failed.

ELOOP: remaining socket: sock=3D6 eloop_data=3D0x8430cb8 user_data=3D(n=

I tried with different drivers like=A0mac80211.
I did install the drivers from Realtek website (rtl_92ce_92se_92de_linu=
x_mac80211_0005.1230.2011) and the latest=A0linux-firmware_1.84_all.deb
But I can't make it work for any reason. Any help would be welcome. Do =
I need to move to a newest kernel to make it work?
Thanks
