Atheros driver supporting 2 SSIDs

[Marcos Biscaysaqu - ThePacific.net]

Hi There
I know mikrotik does it, Im use mikrotik as AP, but my idea is 2 
wireless cards on mikrotik AP, one as rx and the other as tx.  but on 
the bsd client only 1 card we the option to split the traffic in 2 SSIDs 
one for the rx and one for  the tx traffic, we this option we will be 
able to put twices BSD clients per AP or more, plus fix all the 
colitions problem, get a lot of new utilities to the atheros driver etc...
will be possible???

cheers
