I have RaspberryPI which I want to use as hotspot. Idea was to connect it with cable and share network with WIFI adapter using hostapd.
I setup RPI with archlinux and network (everything through SSH). But unfortunately
ifconfig wlan0 up
or
ip link set wlan0 up
freezes ssh for ~1 minute (cannot even ^C), then it continues like nothing happened. Also device is still down. What to do? What else can I check?
Edit: RPI becomes completely unresponsive when I try to bring interface up. I cannot even connect to it through new SSH. wlan0 is visible in "ifconfig -a"
