I just noticed that when mesh is enabled on wlan0, the ap part does
not work. wlan0-ap does not broadcast ssid.

this is using the wpad-mesh package.

config wifi-iface 'wlan0_ap_radio0'
        option mode 'ap'
        option device 'radio0'
        option network 'lan'
        option ifname 'wlan0-ap'
        option ssid 'mssid'
        option encryption 'psk2+aes'
        option key 'passwd'

config wifi-iface 'wlan0_mesh_radio0'
        option mode 'mesh'
        option device 'radio0'
        option network 'wlan0_mesh_if'
        option ifname 'wlan0-mesh'
        option mesh_id 'mmesh'
        option encryption 'psk2+aes'
        option key 'mpasswd'
