Re: [Acx100-users] Using acx-mac80211 on Zyxel P-334WT

[Oliver W. <oli...@ol...>]

Hi James,

This is the sequence I use on the DG834Gv2. Should be the same IP, since
it's the same patched ADAM2 version:
---
- Before on host-machine: echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_frto
- Power up, wait 2sec (+-, since I use the serial to stop ADAM)

ftp 192.168.0.1
- User/PW: adam2/adam2
quote "SETENV mtd5,0x90020000,0x903e0000"
quote "MEDIA FLSH"
bin
put "openwrt-ar7-squashfs.bin" "fs mtd5"
quote REBOOT
---

I used OpenWRT trunk rev 24894, but I had to take out following patch,
otherwise the ethernet wouldn't probe. Just deleting the patch and
rebuilding the image worked:
---
target/linux/ar7/patches-2.6.32/972-cpmac_multi_probe.patch

make target/linux/clean (I think !?)
make

For the wireless, deactivate or build without the acx module, but with
the acx-mac80211 module.

Then put into "/etc/config/wireless" in the "config wifi-device" section
the *macaddr* (wlan0, phy0, etc. didn't do it) of the wifi device:
---
config wifi-device  wlan0
        option type     mac80211
        option macaddr  00:e0:98:cd:f5:c8
        option hwmode   11g

        # REMOVE THIS LINE TO ENABLE WIFI:
        #option disabled 1

[... rest of wireless config ...]

G+, Oliver
