Hi Miles,

It's great you're trying out BB with Commotion, I don't know of anyone
else who's given that a try yet.

I might also suggest looking at the mac80211.sh patch that comes with
commotiond, since I believe that is likely unnecessary or obsolete in BB
due to the later version of netifd it comes with. I suspect Josh (CCed)
would have a better idea about this. Either way, we hope to upgrade to
BB once it is released as stable.

If you're able to get things to work, pull requests are more than
welcome. Let us know if you're able to figure out the problem!

But the hotplug script detects both as wlan0. When I edit the script to use device instead of interface, the script recognizes the correct interface, but something breaks in queries to commotiond.
