<div style="RIGHT: auto"> </div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">I have been doing some reconfiguration of my wireless router.</div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">So we are using command tools like iwpriv and iwconfig.</div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">for example:</div>

<div style="RIGHT: auto">iwconfig ath0 essid 'GoToHell'<BR>iwpriv ath0 hide_ssid 0<BR>iwpriv ath0 ppa 1<BR>iwpriv wifi0 setCountryID 840<BR>iwconfig ath0 channel 6<BR>iwpriv ath0 doth 0<BR>iwpriv ath0 ap_bridge 0<BR>iwconfig ath0 txpower 30<BR>iwpriv ath0 bintval 400<BR>iwpriv ath0 dtim_period 3<BR>iwconfig ath0 rts 256<BR>iwconfig ath0 frag 2346<BR>iwpriv ath0 wmm 1<BR>iwpriv ath0 powersave 1<BR>iwpriv ath0 hbrtimer 1<BR>iwpriv ath0 protmode 1<BR>iwconfig ath0 rate auto<BR>iwpriv ath0 disablecoext 1<BR>iwpriv ath0 inact_init 90<BR>iwpriv ath0 doth 1<BR>iwpriv ath0 doth_pwrtgt 26<BR>iwpriv ath0 cwmin 3 1 2<BR>iwpriv ath0 cwmax 1 0 5<BR>iwpriv ath0 txoplimit 0 0 1024<BR>iwpriv ath0 aifs 0 0 3<BR>iwpriv ath0 acm 0 1 1<BR>iwpriv ath0 chwidth 2<BR>iwpriv ath0 chextoffset 3<BR>iwpriv ath0 uapsd 1<BR>iwpriv ath0 maccmd 3<BR>iwpriv ath0 maccmd 0<BR>iwpriv ath0 wpa 3<BR>iwpriv ath0 ap_bridge 0<BR>iwpriv ath0 wds 0<BR>ifconfig ath0 up<BR>iwconfig ath0 channel

<div style="RIGHT: auto">Along with this we also configure hostapd.conf with almost similar settings.</div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto"> </div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">So my question is that can we just user the hostapd hostapd.conf configuration to set up AP,</div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">Eliminating the wireless tools setting.</div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto"> </div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto">Please share your thought on this.</div>
