Hi all, I would like to install/test CentOS 7.X as a hostap for my home. I am thinking to use an Alfa (http://www.alfa.com.tw) usb wireless adapter or TP-Link. BUt there is not much information in Alfa's or TP-Link's web sites about which of them can run as a HostAP. If I can find any adapter that supports ac with a throughput of 150 Mbps/300Mbps, i...

Hi All Is there an easy way to add hostap support to centos 5 without recompiling the kernel, although I have a prism 2.5 card the stock install doesn't seem the allow this to be setup as an AP thanks in advance for the advice Robb

Hello, Thanx in advance to anyone who can help me get this going. I have tinkered around and around with this and I have it functioning as a visible access point that I can connect to. My problem comes in when trying to access the internet. I''m not an iptables guru or anything but I got the following as my iptables startup to supposedly masq the connection correctly:

None of my systems can use lld2d to map the network when connected via wireless, but it works fine over the wireful network. the wireless is client -> hostapd -> ath5k -> bridge -> kernel with shorewall handling the bridge and kernel, as best I can explain it. on the bridge is also a wired device and a bunch of other PCs. the wired PCs can all map using lld2d just fine. lld2d is a windows vista inspired device discovery sort of thing. it...

I am using hostap driver as an Access Point and want to shape on this wireless interface. The thing with hostap driver (and others i think) is that it creates new virtual interfaces (wlanxxx) for every node that associates with it. Lets say i want to limit all outgoing traffic on wlan0 at 512 Mbits. The problem is...

...via WPA and a common PSK for 802.11x auth. However, I want to have a bit more certainty about things working properly. What tools do people recommend for sniffing and checking a wireless network ? In terms of IDS, is there any way to see if people are trying to bruteforce the network ? I see hostap has nice logging, but anything beyond that ? e.g. with a bad psk on the client hostapd: ath0: STA 00:0b:6b:2b:bb:69 IEEE 802.1X: unauthorizing port is there a way to black list MAC addresses, or just allow certain ones from even trying ? IPSEC will be running on top, but I still want a dece...

...irst, and to slow the things like FTP data transfer, etc. When I use $TC -s qdisc show dev ${IFACE}, I see, that the packets go to correct qdiscs. But when I start FTP data transfer, then the ping time is same with and without this shaping. I should also mention, that I am testing it on WiFi with hostap drivers, where the ping times are about 2-3ms when idle and 100-150ms durring high traffic. Is the first/fastest prio class really 1:1, and the last/slowest is 1:4? Or did I miss something else? A part of the code follows: $TC qdisc add dev ${IFACE} root handle 1:0 prio bands 4 priomap 2 2 2 2...

Hello, I want to add wireless capability to my Gentoo-linux based firewall/router at home, so I bought a Netgear MA311 PCI and installed the hostap package. I load the hostap_pci module and the wlan0 interface comes up fine. I can detect the signal from a wireless enabled laptop. Now I'm thinking I'm going to bridge the wlan0 interface and the eth1 interface, and run the firewall with br0 as the internal interface. I compiled the kern...

I have a linux AP with prism2 (hostap) wireless nic. I whant to filter traffic that pass betwen clients of the AP, this is layer 2 traffic (802.11) and netfilter does not sees it, at first i think in physdev target, but is for layer2 bridged interfaces, and this is not the case. There is a way to filter layer2 traffic independet if...

...reless access point that my card is connected to is shown as the root bridge no matter how low I set the bridge priority. If I tell my wireless card to act as the master, the bridge seems to function perfectly. The card I'm using is a D-Link DWL-520 Rev E1 with a Prism2.5 chipset using the HostAP drivers. I read in the FAQ page that some wireless cards cannot act as bridges because they are unable to spoof MAC addresses. I do not believe this to be the case with my card. I am able to change my MAC address without problems by issuing the following command: ifconfig wlan0 hw ether XXX...

So, with the updated HAL, I'm now able to negotiate an IP address via DHCP over the WLAN. Huzzah! But I've got two questions (now that I can use the card): ath(4) doesn't contain a list of media nor mediaopt settings that can be used. Some are detailed down in EXAMPLES, but there's no comprehensive list. (As well, and this is minor, the speeds are explicitly listed for 802.11a

hi list members, my goal is to make one of my DomU''s act as a wireless accesspoint... So, i need it to have access to the pcmcia wlan card attached to dom0. But how ? when i give the pci=[] option to the domU config file its shows up with lspci but i cant use it... (on debian with module-assistent get rt2x00 in de DomU) Is it possible or would it be better to use a more direct interface
