openplotter v0.10.0alpha : hostapd not starting - sanrab - 2017-10-05

Hi, I'm testing openplotter v.0.10.0alpha NOOBS.
Everything seems to work except wifi AP. I'm using a wifi dongle (ASUS USB-N13) that perfectly works in 0.8.0 but not in the alpha version. 
The status Info in openplotter WiFi AP says

missing AP! or driver is not nl80211
up network: wlan0
dnsmasq (dhcp server): running
hostapd (AP): stopped
networking: started

ip address
10.10.10.1 wlan0

Any suggestion ?

Sandro

I forgot:
RaspberryPi mod. 2
OpenPlotter 0.15.1 beta
IMU InvenSense MPU-9255

Do you know the dongle chipset? some chipsets have not support on lastest raspbian versions. I recommend you to change to a supported dongle. Moving this thread to "How do I...?" forum

The chipset is Ralink RT3072. It works on latest raspbian. 
But I was wrong: it works on OP 0.10 alpha and does not work in OP 0.15.

Be sure your have enough power to feed your system, unplug all your other devices and left just the wifi dongle, are you using a powered usb hub?

you could also add
max_usb_current=1
in /boot/config.txt to boost the usb power.
