My new wifi adapter finally arrived today (AR9271) so I want to give hostap a try with its new 802.11n support. Unfortunately, all the examples I’ve found center around creating a router/AP when all I want to make is an AP - as in, no DHCP or routing. I just want to bridge my wired network to the wireless one. I want all DHCP requests from wireless devices to get passed to my router so it assigns the address (192.168.77.x).
My interfaces are configured like this: /etc/hostname.re0 dhcp /ets/hostname.athn0 media autoselect mode 11n media opt host ap chan 1 nwid testytesterson wpakey testingx inet 192.168.77.253 255.255.255.0 /etc/hostname.bridge0 add athn0 add re0 up A client laptop (running linux mint) sees the access point but will not connect to it. Am I on the right track? Should a bridge be adequate or do I need to configure pf to route between the interfaces? Perhaps the configs for a simple AP-only setup would be a good example for the faq. Thanks Jordon
