``time()`` or ``localtime()`` must be called at least once within 7 hours.
MicroPython will then handle the overflow.
Simultaneous operation of STA_IF and AP_IF
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Simultaneous operation of STA_IF and AP_IF interfaces is supported.
However, due to restrictions of the hardware, there may be performance
issues in the AP_IF, if the STA_IF is not connected and searching.
An application should manage these interfaces and for example
deactivate the STA_IF in environments where only the AP_IF is used.
