Add channel 12 and 13 to Attitude Adjustment

Post by rt_rex »

Edit: I had to remove the video because of the supposed rights,(youtube bull).

Here is a tutorial do add channel 12 and 13 to attitude adjustment.
This hack it's not mine i am just showing how to do it.

I used 1.5.x from ispy in this demonstration. :geek:

This violates some regulatory domains, be aware of that before you start to use this two channels :!:
Not in my case :D

Like azrado said.

http://luci.subsignal.org/~jow/reghack/

The reghack utility replaces the regulatory domain rules in the driver binaries
with less restrictive ones. The current version also lifts the 5GHz radar
channel restrictions in ath9k.

How to use:

ssh root@openwrt

On ar71xx:

cd /tmp/
wget http://luci.subsignal.org/~jow/reghack/reghack.mips.elf
chmod +x reghack.mips.elf
./reghack.mips.elf /lib/modules/*/ath.ko
./reghack.mips.elf /lib/modules/*/cfg80211.ko
reboot

On mpc85xx:

cd /tmp/
wget http://luci.subsignal.org/~jow/reghack/reghack.ppc.elf
chmod +x reghack.ppc.elf
./reghack.ppc.elf /lib/modules/*/ath.ko
./reghack.ppc.elf /lib/modules/*/cfg80211.ko
reboot

The reghack does not work with the latest version.

It is my understanding that one has to compile the firmware with:

CONFIG_ATH_USER_REGD=y

If anyone is able to do so then it would be greatly appreciated!

Works fine in here.
I have 1.6.0 running with channel 13 just fine.

I juat did the patch on v1.6 and it patched successfully.

However, when I goto the Connection screen on the WebUI I am only able to select channels 1-9. The router is a WDR4300 v1.

Any thoughts? Everyone's help is greatly appreciated.

Change your 2.4Ghz channel width to 40MHz (2nd chan. below) and try again
