Dual radio devices, only one enable

Post by rt_rex »

Hi,

Just installed gargoyle on my Alix2c2(the old model)
and i have two radios on my board, but by default only one enables as I enable it on the webif.

I have solved my problem by looking for the disabled radios

Code: Select all

uci show wireless | grep disabled
And enable them

Code: Select all

uci set wireless.@wifi-device[0].disabled=0; uci commit wireless; wifi
This information is available @ http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/uci/wireless#examples

The biggest pain is to configure the second radio using

Code: Select all

 vi etc/config/wireless 
It works but its not very user friendly is there a way to enable and configure the second radio from the webif?

Thanks

Sure but that is even less user friendly.

Thats why I am asking if there is any way to do it from the web interface .
