You may read this for reference : http://www.daveconroy.com/turn-your-raspberry-pi-into-a-wifi-hotspot-with-edimax-nano-usb-ew-7811un-rtl8188cus-chipset/

the hostapd that may not compatible with the rtl8188 chipset you used. So you may try to download the realtek driver and then compile it again to make the new hostapd.

hope this can help.
