I am setting up my DFly 1.1-CURRENT (cvsup's Aug 24) machine to be a 
wireless-AP and I was wondering if it is possible to disable SSID 
broadcasting, and if so, how?


Seems like it needs patches.  At least I spotted a patch from the Leiden
Wireless group for 5.2.1 or so to disable SSID on the PRISM cards.
I wonder if anyone has tested such a patch in DFly?  My card is 
supported by the wi driver and I believe it is a Prism-II chipset.
