I just got it to work with FreeWRT version 1.0 revision 1008 on an
ASUS WL-500gP by using the following settings:
# WLAN
auto eth2
iface eth2 inet manual
wifi-type brcm
wifi-country CH
wifi-mode ap
wifi-akm psk2
wifi-crypto aes+tkip
wifi-ssid <myessid>
wifi-wpa_psk <mypasswd>
please note that I am using inet manual because I bridge it together
with the physical ports at the back of the device.
CAVEAT #1: I noticed that "wl" and "ifconfig" always seem to report
the encryption key as off / non supported but my laptop
can set up a connection properly regardless.
CAVEAT #2: The setup does not seem stable. I sometimes have to ifdown
/ ifup the wireless interface until it works properly. Not
sure whether this is related to my heavily playing around
with it at the moment, though.
Regards,
Georg
