Hi,
I'd like to know if is it possible to create a double wi-fi net with my wgt634u and kamikaze 7.09 (official snapshot from openwrt.org), in particular I'd like to create two net, one psk and one psk2.
I have tried to modify /etc/config/wireless like this:


config wifi-device  wifi0
        option type     atheros
        option channel  7


config wifi-iface

                option device   wifi0
                option network  lan
                option mode     ap
                option ssid     wgt634u_psk
                option encryption psk
                option key 12345678901234567890


config wifi-device  wifi1
        option type     atheros
        option channel  5


config wifi-iface

                option device   wifi1
                option network  lan
                option mode     ap
                option ssid     wgt634u_psk2
                option encryption psk2
                option key 12345678901234567890

but it doesn't work, I see only the psk net.
What can I do?
Thank you and excese me fot grammar mistake

You only have one physical device called "wifi0" and both virtual wifi-iface must be based on that.

Thank you MMCM! Now it works! I have modified /etc/config/wireless like this:


config wifi-device  wifi0
        option type     atheros
        option channel  7

config wifi-iface

                option device   wifi0
                option network  lan
                option mode     ap
                option ssid     wgt634u
                option encryption psk
                option key 12345678901234567890


config wifi-iface

                option device   wifi0
                 option network  lan
                 option mode     ap
                 option ssid     wgt634u2
                option encryption psk2
                option key 09876543210987654321

Using trunk I had to add autocreate=none maxvaps=2 when loading the ath_pci module in order to have the same config as you. Thanks anyway!

The discussion might have continued from here.
