Description

I have an alix (alix3d2, 2xminiPCI, 1xLAN, 2xUSB, bios 0.99h) board
with 2 miniPCI WiFi cards on it (WLM54GP23, Atheros AR2413/AR2414 200mW).

One WiFi card is used as WAN interface in Infrastructure mode and spoofed
MAC address and the other is configured as Access Point.

As soon as the WAN IP type is switched to PPPOE kernel panic occurs (process
mpd5).

Output on serial console:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Configuring WAN interface...ifconfig: interface pppoe1_wlan0 does not exist
