Hey all,

 

I just bought an Orange Pi PC Plus and I intend to use it as an access point for multiple networks.

According to https://renaudcerrato.github.io/2016/10/01/virtual-ssid-hostapd/ I used "iw list" to check if the wifi card supports multiple SSIDs.

And it looks like it isn't.

 

iw list displays "interface combinations are not supported"

 

 

Is that just a driver/kernel issue or does the card really don't support multiple SSIDs?

 

Cheers,

luphi

All those boards have low cost 1T1R 2.4G wireless chips which can usually operate as AP ... but usually without advanced functionality, low stations limits, etc. Check this thread for what to add on USB if you want some router like experiences. Even on better ones, it is hard to say whether multiple SSID and other "advanced" functions work. It should work but I don't remember I made tests on this.
