Re: [OpenWrt-Devel] Wireless Router with openwrt, how to use dual band

2015-02-12 Thread Aaron Z
This would require that your server has dual NICs and your laptops can
connect to both 2.4ghz and 5ghz at the same time.

Your device will likely have a configuration for the 2.4 ghz radio and
one for the 5ghz radio. Setup 2 networks/firewall zones (LAN and
LAN2?), then assign the 2.4ghz radio to LAN and the 5ghz radio to
LAN2.
Set your server to have an IP on LAN and one LAN2, then set the group
messages to be sent from the LAN2 IP and the private messages be sent
on the LAN IP.

I am curious, are some of these messages large enough to cause issues
with the network, or why do you want to use both bands like this?

  What i am trying to achieve is if someone want to send msg to a an

  someone
  want to send message to the group then it should be send through another
  band (eg 2.8GHz or 5 GHz).

 I would think that you would want to setup different IP ranges for the
 different bands (ie: 2.4ghz uses 10.0.100.x and 5ghz uses 10.0.101.x)
 and then set your server to communicate on those IP ranges
