recent hostap howto?
|
|
|
Is there an updated howto for configuring hostap using a wireless card
capable of 802.11b/g?
http://netbsd.org/Documentation/network/wavelan.html seems to indicate that
any of the listed cards can be configured as an access point, but the cited
"See also" http://www.muine.org/~hoang/netap.html indicates that only a
subset using the Intersil Prism chip can be configured as a hostap, and
those only capable of 802.11b.
I'd appreciate any guidance in the matter. |

I'll add that I have yet to purchase the wireless PCI card and hope to get
the correct one first time, hopefully with an antenna that can be extended
using standard coaxial cable and connectors or some such. |
