Hi all,

I have searched the forums but couldn't find a similar post so I thought I'd throw this question up.

Has anyone been able to use a Meraki device(atheros chipset) to Connect to a Linksys WRT54G(L) or the other models?

I have a meraki here that I have flashed with Kamikaze and a Linksys flashed with standard OpenWRT in Adhoc mode for a mesh network im connecting into. I have not been able to connect to any Linksys devices with any atheros wireless device I have, that included the meraki and also my own ITX box with a Atheros wireless PCI card.

Just wondering if anyone else has had problems connecting the linksys's to meraki's or other atheros based devices.

Cheers

I have a meraki connecting to a linksys wrt54g in both normal infrastructure and wds mode, but admittedly i've only tried adhoc in passing with atheros (it worked though). if I remember i'll try later atheros-broadcom adhoc and see what happens

Cheers, Thanks for that

I honestly can't work out why it wont connect when all my other devices that aren't atheros based can connect to pretty much anything.
