Well, your use of a “@gmail.com <http://gmail.com/>” email address announces to 
the world that you don’t know much of anything (and it’s why your email to the 
list is moderated).  Just saying :-)

If you have a single interface on which IP multicast routing is enabled, but IP 
multicast doesn’t work, then that sounds like a bug in your system somewhere 
(perhaps a device driver).  Even a WiFi interface in Access Point mode 
(assuming that that’s what you meant by “AP mode”) should be able to 
send/receive IP multicast.

As I said before, setting one of your interfaces (but no other) to have a route 
for 224/8 is usually the most reliable way to have it chosen for IP multicast.  
But if that doesn’t work, you can try setting the global variables 
“SendingInterfaceAddr” and “ReceivingInterfaceAddr” to explicitly set the 
interface that you want to use.  (But that’s definitely not 100% reliable 
either.)
