Re: Wireless configuration - Not access point

The router will show up on your wireless network using the WAN address you have set (192.168.2.1). You should be able to ssh in over the wireless if you made the firewall changes I talk about in part 9 of the Wifi Radio tutorial (http://www.mightyohm.com/blog/2009/05/building-a-wifi-radio-part-9-a-f...

Re: Decent audio adapters.

If you have a machine running Linux you can use it to check the sampling rates (they will show up in dmesg when you attach the device), but that's pretty much the same thing you'll see on the router when you try it out. In this case, an older adapter might indeed be better, as in addition to better ...

Re: Installing python to USB

Please do link to the instructable! And if you still have issues with ssh we should be able to solve them.

Re: Installing python to USB

If you could share the steps it took to get Python working here, that would be awesome - I'm sure others (including me) would like to see! You should be able to get telnet working by using the LAN configuration in the /etc/config/network settings I am using, and connecting an ethernet cable from you...

Re: having to choose a wifi channel and ssid...

I agree, this would be cool. There might be some code out there. I would post/check on the OpenWrt forums.

Re: Wireless configuration - Not access point

How can you tell the router is functioning as an AP? Do you actually see it show up with it's own SSID when you browse for wireless networks from another device? Your /etc/config/wireless looks good, assuming you replace my_ssid with the SSID of your wireless network and make sure that you are using...

Re: WL-520GC + sound + webcam ?

I don't think so, but I haven't looked in almost a year now. The WL-520gU was the clear winner when I searched for a router for this project. The next best bet was the Asus WL-500gP v2, but it costs significantly more.

Re: No serial connection, terminal is still blank

Can you describe or provide a picture of how you are using two FTDI interfaces? I'm not sure why this is necessary. From your posts it sounds like you are trying to solve two problems at once: 1. communications between your PC and the serial port pins you soldered to the router PCB 2. communications...

Re: No serial connection, terminal is still blank

Try swapping your TX and RX lines and see if that fixes the problem.
