Yep it works! Thanks. I now have my primary wifi on 2.4ghz and 5ghz and
one "guest wifi"
using /usr/sbin/hostapd -P /var/run/hostapd.pid -B /etc/hostapd.conf
/etc/hostapd2.conf /etc/hostapd3.conf
rc.conf:
wlans_ath0="wlan0"
wlans_ath1="wlan1 wlan2"
create_args_wlan0="wlanmode hostap"
create_args_wlan1="wlanmode hostap"
create_args_wlan2="wlanmode hostap"
ifconfig_wlan0="channel 56 up"
ifconfig_wlan1="channel 11 up"
ifconfig_wlan2="channel 11 up"
hostapd_enable="YES"
