Since kernel drivers for Realtek wireless chips use non-standard interfaces, upstream hostapd does not support them. One have to apply an external patch for hostapd to work with these chips. See: https://github.com/pritambaral/hostapd-rtl871xdrv A configuration option is added to enable support for Realtek chips, and it's turned off by default.

Enable support for standard ACS (Automatic Channel Selection).
|
|
Some propietary drivers use a custom algorithm which requires
|
|
channel to be set to '0' (which enables ACS in the config),
|
|
causing hostapd to use the standard one which doesn't work
|
|
for those cases.
