# CONFIG_HOSTAP_FIRMWARE is not set

Configure Host AP driver to include support for firmware image download. This option by itself only enables downloading to the volatile memory, i.e. the card RAM. This option is required to support cards that don't have firmware in flash, such as D-Link DWL-520 rev E and D-Link DWL-650 rev P
