Hi ! Juste add opt1 interface (ath0) and go to INTERFACES =>OPT1 and you can configure your atheros based wi-fi card. However, I had a littl' problem with it : affter boot ath interface will stay in "no link" state no matter what option you try. To bring it to work , go to http://your.ip.of.mono/exec.php and execute : "ifconfig ath0 mediaopt hostap mode 11g ssid my_net" After this, everything works fine. I made a bridge with LAN network. I also did a couple test to see how it performs. My monowall runs on WRAP board (3xLAN , 1xmini-PCI). Copy an ISO image between my laptop (same wi-fi mini-pci card like in monowall , 3054 MP ARIES http://www.netgate.com, DELL 8500, 100Mbits) and my server (AMD64 3000+, 1GBit LAN) : 1) using wireless : max 1.8MB/S average 900kb/s. At beginig it starts at ~250kb/s and will go up 2) using wired interface : 3MB/S max Compared to my Linksys WAG54G : 1) using wireless : max 2.1MB/S and it will goes in 2 sec to this speed 2) using wired interface: 8MB/S (well, WAG has 4 port switch built-in) |
