|
|
v 1.47 worked so well I must have missed v 1.5. Reflashed to v1.6 today on both my Blueboxes and realized when choosing option #4 for specific SSID and WEP, script does not stop to allow you to enter info. It reboots immediately. Worked around it by using boot opt #2, reboot, then boot opt #3, reboot.
Everthing else so far so good, Great Job!

I found that the workaround in the previous post was just a fluke that it worked. The following will help identify the problem and step by step solution. Not for the Linux-timid. Roll up your shirt sleeves and follow closely. You might want to print this out.
1) telnet 192.168.108.1
DISPLAY) root@OpenWrt:/#
2) cd /usr/bin
DISLPAY) root@OpenWrt:/usr/bin#
3) vi boot
This will start the vi editor for Linux. I will not try to teach you how to use the editor here but will explain the steps to fix the 'boot' script you are now viewing. The problem in the script is a '5' instead of a '4' in line 85.
4) With the 'DOWN' cursor, scroll down to line 85. Then over to the '5'. Underline the '5' with the cursor.
5) Press 'Esc' key once. Then lower case 'x'. That should delete the '5'.
6) Now press 'Esc' key once more, then lower case 'i' (for insert). Then '4'.
7) Press 'Esc' key, ':' key, 'w' key, and 'q' key. Escape puts vi in 'command' mode, :wq for write file and quit. That's it!
Type in 'boot' and use option #4 for Fixed SSID and WEP. |

Thanks for the fix! The source has been updated, so anyone with v1.61 or later is good! _________________ -Mark |
