Subject: Re: A10 device as a WiFi AP?
To make it works in AP mode, you need compile hostapd from RTL's driver:

http://www.realtek.com/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=48&PFid=48&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true#RTL8188CUS

download RTL8188CUS driver and compile hostapd which is in
wpa_supplicant_hostapd folder.

It works for me.

Regards,
Tim
