To be found under "internet settings" next to dhcp/static/ppoe Removed in 2.3.6 as it's not so tested as a DDwrt or Gargoyle and Fon has moved on from the much proofed Atheros/madwifi to the Ralink in SIMPL/N; but allways nice if people like you can test it and provide feedback :-) The last remaining problem is the quality of the cam - especially in the > dark at night.

She moves to a stable near our house. Approximately 200meters direct line and she wanted an surveillance for the birth. For me, the best and most interesting solution was the point-to-point connection with low-cost equipment. So I bought two Fonera 2202 which were pimped to dd-wrt 24preSP2 and two 18dbi Yagi antennas. Costs some hours to get the dd-wrt image on the foneras, but in the end the solution works perfectly. I got about 12-18Mbits and the connection is really stable. I had no time so far to make improvements and calibrate the both antennas for 100%. I'm more than satisfied with the bandwith. So we got a win-win situation. I had a nice project with an interesting result and my wife got her "HorseTV". ;-))) The last remaining problem is the quality of the cam - especially in the dark at night. But I fear, when I want to have really good quality I need something like Mobotix or so - that's not low cost at all. ;-( Greetings, Christian ___ Development mailing list Development@fonosfera.org http://fonosfera.org/mailman/listinfo/development

Hi Guys, first of all: Thanks for the support. It runs! The right (working) connections for me are: Fonera : USB Uart GND : X1 and X5 RX : X2 TX : X3 3V3 : not needed!!! So I got now full serial console access ;-) After that: http://www.dd-wrt.com/routerdb/de/download.php?file=1970 Worked fine for me. Thank you very much!
