multiple SSID support (in BCM4318)
Hello all,
are multiple SSID supported (especially on BCM4318)? I could not find the answer through googling.
By tw way, on your page, you say "BCM4318 chipset: AP mode does not work because of packet loss in high transmission rates. Hard to debug & fix." IS it still true? It seems to me it works fine, but I have been trying it only for a while.
Regards,
Tomas

To my knowledge, there have been no fixes specific for the BCM4318 that were aimed at fixing the packet loss at high transmission rates; however, there have been a lot of fixes for b43. Perhaps one or more of them helped that problem. Your tests will likely tell.
As to the multiple SSID question, that will be a function of mac80211 and friends. Comment #3 of http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=24268 seems to have a prescription for using nl80211 to accomplish that. If that posting doesn't answer your question, direct further inquiries to linux-wireless at vger.kernel.org.

Hi Tom?s,
this problem was almost not detectable by users and it was finally addressed here http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/b43-dev/2011-December/002249.html
Everything should work fine as you say.
