WRT54G Guest Wifi Invalid

Post by pbix »

The brcm47xx-generic-standard image appears to include guest wifi support on the configuration page, however, enabling it causes all Wifi to cease operation.

I do not think a guest Wifi can be supported on this chipset. At least I know it is not supported on my WRT54G-TM so I think this option should be removed from the configuration page.

Tested with v1.9.1 and WRT54G-TM
Linksys WRT1900ACv2
Netgear WNDR3700v2
TP Link 1043ND v3
TP-Link TL-WDR3600 v1
Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH2
WRT54G-TM

Code: Select all

var isb43 = wirelessDriver == "mac80211" && (!GwifiN) ? true : false ;
If you type "isb43" at the developer console in Google Chrome/Firefox, does it come back with True? If it does (and i hope it does), we can just add a flag to disable guest configs for this driver (which is not capable of multi-ssid and hence why the wifi doesn't function at all)

Line 1319 becomes

Code: Select all

var gns = (wirelessDriver == "mac80211" && !isb43) || wirelessDriver == "atheros"; //drivers that support guest networks

I checked and isb43 does return 'true' on this router and wirelessDriver returns 'mac80211'
