Multiple SSID

[Lukic]

Yes, this works, i tried it right now :-) somwhere on net i found script
named FakeAP, and with it you can generate tousands of fake APs :-) Maybe it
will need to set greater delay (option --sleep) between essid changes,
permit only few AP names and it will works just like you need..
