It supports AP mode, as I have used the stuff when I worked on Windows with
Connectify.
Possibly, this is a driver issue, as "wl" driver may not be supporting AP
mode.

However, I tried to download drivers from
http://www.broadcom.com/support/802.11 for this device, "43142", but
received errors in installing them but received errors. I use kernel
version 4.1.0.0.
Is there any problem with the kernel version?
