first delay
startstop
not understanding why is it so rather than printing "start" and delay then "stop"

to disable in ncakmod.conf and then reboot your system. See
the ncakmod.conf(4) manual page for more information.
Note that in order to properly stop NCA on your system, you must first edit the ncakmod.conf(4) file and set the status field to "disable,"
then reboot your system.
