Hi,

1) Does this work yet?
2) Can it be used as an Access point instead?

Thanks,
Rich

Hi,

Yes it works on kernel 2.4

I dont really understand.

Tex,

I want to be able to use the router as an access point not as a router.  I am currently doing this with White Russian.

Thanks,
Rich

If I understand you already have a router with White Russian running on it and you want the 500gp to act just as an AP for your router. Well I quess it's possible but it will be a strange configuration:

 Router (OpenWrt) ------ 500gp ( OpenWrt or original firmware ?)

If you need just an AP I would suggest to use a less expensive hardware. Fonera for example ?

If you really want the Asus 500gp, I would use it as a router AND as a AP together.

It has always worked and still works just fine.  AFAIK the only problem with it is that if you want to use it as an AP using WPA (not sure about WEP), you'll need to either use the brcm-2.4 version of Kamikaze (i.e. using a 2.4 kernel), or change the wireless card in the box, or maybe try and use a more bleeding edge version of the b43 driver.
