3 years ago Does your wireless network card support "access point mode"? You can check by copying the output of iw list here and looking if "AP" is listed under "Supported interface modes".
I did everything as described. I didn't touch the hostapd.conf because my Wifi is called wlan0 in iwconfig. But when I run krack-test-client-py I get the following Error message. I alredy recloned the github repo and replaced the hostapd.conf for a new one.
