Hi,

Now I've got a kernel that supports wireless installed on my WRT54g I'm going about setting it up as a bridge to my current router (running HyperWRT 2.1b1 + Thibor 15c, will migrate to OpenWRT once I have some experience and can get things working).

Anyway, I currently have the HyperWRT broadcasting wireless on channel 12 (legal here in the UK) and need to get the OpenWRT install on the second router to do the same.  I've tried editing /etc/config/wirless and it currently looks like...

config wifi-device   wl0
            option type           broadcom
            option country       uk
            option channel      '7' # Currently different from WRT54g with HyperWRT and wireless on channel 12
            option maxassoc   '1'
            option disabled     '0'

config wifi-iface
            option device        wl0
            option network     'wan'
            option mode         'wds'
            option ssid           'slack' # The same as HyperWRT
            option encryption none  # Same as HyperWRT, intend to implement WPA once things are working
            option hidden       '0'
            option isolate       '0'
            option bgscan       '0'
            option wds           '0'

When I restart the interface I get...

/etc/init.d.network restart
BusyBox v1.4.2 (2008-06-10 07:23:18 CDT) multi-call binary

Usage: ps

Interface type none not supported
Command 'set country' failed: -1
Command 'set up' failed: -1

Commenting out the country line results in the interface being bought up okay, but I still get the error about 'Interface type none not supported'.

Checking the config files shows that there is no 'type' set to 'none'

grep 'type' /etc/config/*
network:          option type          bridge
syslog: option type      'circular'
wireless:          option type          broadcom

grep 'none' /etc/config/*
network:          option proto         'none'
wireless:          option encryption none

So I'm stumped as to how to access and use the channels > 11?

Thanks in advance for any input,

slack
