Hello everyone,
I need your help with the following situation:
I have installed VyOS on a Lenovo small pc and attached to it as usb 2 wireless adapters model tp-link TL-WN722N .
What I want to achieve is to get “wan” over one wireless adapter and provide “lan” over the other (access point) because I am in a location where I need to route traffic over vpn and not use directly the wireless connection from the location.
First point achieved, I connected wlan0 to the location’s wireless network and I am able to browse the internet from the router.
Second point: I’ve configured wlan1 as access-point mode, but the “problem” is that I can not see the wireless adapter doing anything physically … not able to see the SSID.
If I do “show interfaces wireless wlan1 scan” it works, I can see the networks and led light on adapter.
More information from router:

P.S.: ignore the poor config, for the moment is only the default deployment with not too much config until I figure out how I can see/broadcast the SSID .
Millions of thanks to everyone !
