Hi all!

Does anyone know if nas can be used to set up wpa-psk towards the WAN/ethernet interface in client/supplicant mode?

Alternatively, it seems that some chipset drivers have a built in supplicant mode. Does anyone know where to find documentation on that?

I need this to set up an ethernet connection toward my university lan that uses 802.1x (PEAP-MSCHAP) authentication.

Thanks!

nas is used exclusively for authenticator/supplicant purpoes on the Broadcom wireless interface.  If you need to do 802.1x authentication on your ethernet connection you can use xsupplicant or wpa_supplicant.

Do you know if xsupplicant or wpa_supplicant have been ported to this platform (OpenWRT or Oleg's firmware)?

I've a Asus WL-500gP.

Thanks for the reply!

yes.  wpa_supplicant is an official package in White Russian.  Both wpa_supplicant and xsupplicant have been ported to Kamikaze also.

Any idea if these packages can be used on Oleg's firmware? :-)

Nope, you can try it and see, but you will have no one to blame but yourself if your router turns into a Norse zombie out to do the bidding of Oleg.

Right :-D Well, I've freed my router from the wrath of Oleg I'm now running White Russian 0.9.

wpa_supplicant was not installed by default. Apparently I have to use ipkg? Without having my router online, can I download the packages, upload to the router and install locally?
