在應用AR1021X模塊化集成時，一些應用需要用模塊來做soft ap使用，這就牽涉到hostapd配置問題，如果配置不好，是沒有SSID熱點出來！模塊有支持雙頻的，有只支持單頻的，具體要認真閱讀模塊規(guī)格書,所以配置的時候要留意！

一般根據對應的Kernel內核版本提供的驅動包，保障物理連接正常，供電穩(wěn)定，正常編譯驅動后，就能加載成功，并正常使用！

以下案例現象：使用hostapd配置AP熱點，ap熱點出不來!

log信息如下：

以上信息很明顯，是針對只能支持ISM5.8G頻段的模塊，hostapd.conf配置成了ISM2.4G，只要進行重新配置就可以了！同時提醒，雙頻是分時雙頻，也就是工作時候只能支持一種，但是有兩種頻供選！或者理解成雙頻供選擇，實際選用一種！

針對AR1021X系列WiFi模塊(SR6225UE、SR6224UE、SR6221UE、SR6235UE、SR5223UD)，編譯加載的問題，可以提供Log信息，配合有效分析！
