Can you please build hostapd with CONFIG_WPA_MSG_MIN_PRIORITY=0 in the 
OpenWrt .config, add -d to the hostapd command in /etc/init.d/wpad

Afterwards, please show me the relevant log part with the full context 
of the beacon command, so that I can figure out which parameter might be 
going out of range.

Thanks,

- Felix
