I can see how that would be a bummer in your case. Hope Atheros will get
around to it, that part being in the proprietary portion :I

Personally I miss AP mode more for sharing Neo's GPRS connection (or
even a host computer's connection via USB) to wlan clients. But at least
this can probably be worked around with adhoc mode, if a bit less
conveniently.
