I thought you said a couple posts ago that you were able to configure it through the GUI to work the way you wanted it to, you were just wanting to make something the default.

So do you have it working or not?

If you have it working, it should keep working after a reboot. What are you meaning when you say that you want to change the default?

Are you meaning that you want to create an image that will behave this way when you do a factory reset (or when you first flash it)? If so, then you need to take your working config and make it part of your image via the files/ mechansim.

If you are meaning something else, I'm still not understanding what you are trying to do.

Hi,

How to config wireless config file for repeater mode. I am not able to
config.

When i load firmware the wireless config will be like below:

config wifi-device 'wifi0'
        option type 'qcawifi'
        option macaddr '00:26:75:bd:37:24'
        option hwmode '11ng'
        option txpower '16'
        option htmode 'HT20'
        option disabled '0'
        option channel '1'

config wifi-iface
        option device 'wifi0'
        option mode 'ap'
        option ssid 'Test_ap'
        option network 'lan'
        option encryption 'psk2'
        option key 'Test_ap'
        option wds '1'

so it works as Access point, i can connect to it any devices. When i scan
it shows me list of devices then connect to anyone. then the wireless
config  will becomes like below:

config wifi-device 'wifi0'
        option type 'qcawifi'
        option macaddr '00:26:75:bd:37:24'
        option hwmode '11ng'
        option txpower '16'
        option htmode 'HT20'
        option disabled '0'
        option channel '1'

config wifi-iface
        option network 'wwan'
        option ssid 'D-link-Router'
        option encryption 'psk2'
        option device 'wifi0'
        option mode 'sta'
        option key '0010069039'
        option wds '1'

Then i add one more ap mode so wireless config becomes,
config wifi-device 'wifi0'
        option type 'qcawifi'
        option macaddr '00:26:75:bd:37:24'
        option hwmode '11ng'
        option txpower '16'
        option htmode 'HT20'
        option disabled '0'
        option channel '1'

config wifi-iface
       option network 'wwan'
        option ssid 'D-link-Router'
        option encryption 'psk2'
        option device 'wifi0'
        option mode 'sta'
        option key '0010069039'
        option wds '1'

config wifi-iface
        option device 'wifi0'
        option mode 'ap'
        option ssid 'Test_ap'
        option network 'lan'
        option encryption 'psk2'
        option key 'Test_ap'
        option wds '1'

This i added manually one ap mode.

So if i copy this config file, build and load this firmware, its load what
it was there so it shows one client which i was connected last time and one
AP which i added.

But now i cannot scan anymore and connect to new router instead of old
client.

This is the problem i am facing.

Basically i need to configure the wireless file for repeater mode.

So after connecting to another router this SSID still should be there and
other device can connect to it.

you have a working config

but you want to do something by default

what you want to do is different at different times.

what is it that you want to be the default? when do you want this default
to apply? This isn't clear.

Yes,

i can copy the config and build with this configuration,

for example now i have connected to some router, another time we can
connect to any router. So how i can fix the settings by default.

what do you mean by "default wireless config file"

Once you have set it from the GUI, it is in the config files. The next
time you boot it will use that config.

If you mean that you want it in the factory default config (for when you
first flash the router or do a factory reset), then take the
/etc/config/wireless and /etc/config/network files and add them to your
build under /files

    client/AP interfaces on one radio)

Firstly i configure wireless config as below:

config wifi-device 'wifi0'
       option type 'qcawifi'
       option macaddr '00:01:11:00:01:00'
       option hwmode '11ng'
       option txpower '17'
       option htmode 'HT20'
       option disabled '0'
       option channel '1'

config wifi-iface
       option device 'wifi0'
       option mode 'ap'
       option ssid 'Testing_ap'
       option network 'lan'
       option encryption 'psk2'
       option key 'Testing_ap'

so its SSID was showing and able to connect any device to it.

Then i scan the device and connect to one of it. While joining the
network
i selected Client(WDS) then the wireless config becomes like below:


why don't you try following the steps in the video that you posted.

first connect as a client, then add an additional interface and make
the
second interface the AP for things to connect to.

the order may make a difference.

config wifi-device 'wifi0'

       option type 'qcawifi'
       option macaddr '00:01:11:00:01:00'
       option hwmode '11ng'
       option txpower '17'
       option htmode 'HT20'
       option disabled '0'
       option channel '1'

config wifi-iface
       option network 'wwan'
       option ssid 'D_Link_Router'
       option encryption 'psk2'
       option device 'wifi0'
       option mode 'sta'
       option key 'Dlink_Router'
       option wds '1'

Then  i added one as shown in the video. Now its connected to router
also
and this add one also showing so i can connect to this also.

But i am not getting how to keep this in default wireless config.

Because every time we cant add one to configure like this. It should
be
like default should be in ap mode so any device we can connect, if
its
connected to another router also that SSID still should be visible
and
able
to connect to this.

one as Master but i am not able to enable it . I mean to say wireless

What happens when you try to follow the video?


Based on your comments, i'm guessing that things don't work when
you
try
and configure the second network and have it with a different SSID
than
the
first network that you put in client mode.

Is this correct?
