Dual Wireless Cards

Post by GaryC »

Hi
I have managed to get OpenWRT to work on an RB411AR. This has a built in wireless card and I intend to add a second via the PCI slot.

I intend to bridge the Ethernet port and the inbuilt wireless card (which will be operating in AP mode, creating a local hotspot/dhcp server). The second wireless card will be running in station mode and used to connect to a remote access point.

I like the look of Gargoyle but before I install, can this configuration be supported?

Thanks

Gary

Anything that works on OpenWRT should also work in Gargoyle

BUT

It may not be available / configurable in the Gargoyle GUI

You'd have to do some work of your own via the command line / putty

OK - thanks. I'll give it a go.

If I am using the latest trunk of OpenWrt, is this link still valid in order to install the packages:

Code: Select all

src gargoyle http://gargoyle-router.com/packages/kamikaze0809/atheros-2.6 
Thanks
