[MLB-WIRELESS] All quiet on the Wireless front....

[Winder]

Good to hear that people are hacking their boxen.

 So, how good is sveasoft? I too am looking to get it to replicate the
functionality of my retired linux box with the WRT54G but I am not a linux
guru by any means. I'm a tainted windows user that looks upon the word
'compile' to mean 'good luck buddy, you're going to need it'.

 So, I want routing between AAF and GAZ, a local AP with maybe VPN into my
home network and that's about it.

 Does the sveasoft firmware support AP to AP, if the other end is running
host AP? I'd really love to have just on AP with one of the diverse antenna
connections going to my directional Hills jobby, and the other for a local
omni. Not sure if you can do that, but that would be the ideal solution. If
that is possible, then I've got some hardware for sale :)

Regards,
g at z.

Yeah, you'd be crazy to stick to the stock linksys firmware, it's so
incredibly limited compared to 3rd party ones, especially sveasoft. For
those who don't really know it, the sveasoft one is used exactly the same as
the stock one, they've got the same web interface and everything, it's just
got many more capabilities.

I've just got my hands on a copy of the source for the latest non-public
release of sveasoft firmware and having a bit of fun compiling up a few
slightly customised firmwares for it....first thing for me is to get nfs
client running so can mount a share from my main linux server, and I'm
trying to build one with a hacked wireless driver that supposedly might help
for longer links, although it's not certain it's working right.

If anyone's interested in having a copy of the firmware with their own
default settings compiled into it they're more than welcome to contact me.
Once I've compiled it the first time, it only takes about 2 minutes to
recompile with a new default's file.
