Linksys WUSB54G rev C wifi AP problem
-
trying to setup Alfa AWUS036NH as AP in 2.0 but looks like driver is not supported:
Apr 1 11:16:09 php: /interfaces.php: Cloning new wireless interface urtw0_wlan0
Apr 1 11:16:09 php: /interfaces.php: Failed to clone interface urtw0 with error code 1, output ifconfig: SIOCIFCREATE2: Operation not supported
Apr 1 11:16:09 kernel: urtw0: HOSTAP mode not supportedI wish this could work with 2.0 :(
Thank You

FreeBSD doesn't support Access Point (AP) mode on your wireless NIC, see the FreeBSD urtw manpage. Buy one that supports AP mode, e.g. Tenda W311U or TP-LInk TL-WN321G, supported by run and rum drivers respectively. Both of these use Ralink chipsets. It appears there are a number of other brands and models using the same chipsets.

i hva ejust noticed that http://www.freebsd.org/releases/7.2R/hardware.html#WLAN
it is all compatybile list that should work with pfsense as AP …..

Try enabling encryption: WPA2/AES and/or apbridge.
I had to temporarily take my "rum0" out of service to use in another machine. It looks line your configuration differs from the one I was using in those two parameters.

thank you for help
any way does not work :( Easier was pluging WRT54G to DMZ and this way works ….... I believe the only way is buying some wifi card that is already checked with pfsense 2.0 and approved by forum.
thank you
