Hallo kamisan,
sorry, I do not understand your information well:
>> I decided to make just the essential changes to the three lines in vappasswd and vaprename from "/etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf" to "/etc/hostapd/hostapd_3b.conf" It works perfectly!
Whow did you make it ????

All time I try to modify the password of Virtual Access Point of AstroBerry I can NOT find its network anymore....
I see that sudo vappasswd and sudo vaprename change the files "/etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf" and "/etc/hostapd/hostapd_3bplus.conf" and "/etc/hostapd/hostapd_3b.conf"
But after sudo reboot the VAP seems not work anymore. I can not find the WLAN at mobile-phone...
Same happens, when I try to change these file manually ba sudo nano <filename> at line ssid=xxxxxx and wpa_passphrase=xxxxxx
Does not matter, if I change hw_mode to g and channel to 6 or not ....

I do not find out where I make mistake(s).
Perhaps you can explain step by step what you did to change passwort (anns ssid) of VAP succesfully.
Thanks
Mats
