Hi, DH3HS here. Madwifi source code is End-of-life here, I wouldn't recommend this. There are amateur radio specific WLAN router distributions available, you should go to one of them to ask for specifics (e.g. source code).
There are various project to build links all over the country, e.g. HAMNET in Austria and now also Germany. They have lists of recommended hardware/software, e.g. Ubiquiti, Mikrotik, or a modified Fonera router. If you're a programmer and want to do such a thing on your own, then I'd recommend the ath5k / ath9k driver on Linux. That is current software, maintained and all. You need to learn about specific frequency setting, make sure you don't violate the allowed bandwith in your country, encode your call sign into the MAC address, get an IP address in the ham radio range (www.ampr.org). Things like that ... Here's a german language website with the DD-WRT/Fonera info: http://www.dl8rds.de/index.php/How_to_install_DD-WRT_on_a_Fonera_box. Use your favorite translate service :-) _______________________________________________ ath5k-devel mailing list ath5k-devel@lists.ath5k.org https://lists.ath5k.org/mailman/listinfo/ath5k-devel
