Hi,

     I compiled the firmware using kamikaze_7.09 and flashed the openwrt-wrt54g-2.4-squashfs.bin. I am trying to configure the WRT54GL device to work in adhoc mode. I entered the following nvram commands as mentioned below.

#nvram set lan_ifname=vlan0
#nvram unset lan_ifnames   
#nvram set wifi_ifname=eth1
#nvram commit

     To configure the lan_ifname NVRAM setting to lan interface vlan0.


#nvram set wifi_proto=static
#nvram set wifi_ipaddr= 192.168.1.1 <adhoc IP address>
#nvram set wifi_netmask= 255.255.255.0 <netmask>
#nvram set wl0_mode=sta
#nvram set wl0_infra=0
#nvram set wl0_ssid=aodv-mesh <adhoc essid>
#nvram commit

     To configure the wireless interface to work in adhoc mode and reboot the unit. But when i entered the following command to check the configuration parameters for eth1, its showing the following error.

root@OpenWrt:/# iwconfig eth1
eth1      No such device

      Have anyone faced this problem?? Please help me in this regard.

Thanks and regards,
Nagarajan
