DD-WRT is an alternative firmware for several WLAN routers which offers a lot of more features than the default
|
||
|
|
firmwares of most routers, such as repeater mode, printserver, fileserver, etc.. I use it on an *ASUS WL-300g* and a
|
||
|
|
*Linksys WRT54GL*.

Configure as non-WDS repeater
|
||
|
|
=============================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After a lot of trial-and-error and studying [the](http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Wlan_Repeater) [different](http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=7595)
|
||
|
|
[HowTos](http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Universal_Wireless_Repeater), I now found the best settings to make my
|
||
|
|
former AccessPoint a repeater.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p><div class="noteclassic">
|
||
|
|
This mode will repeat the WLAN network under a different SSID. Your WLAN card won't do any roaming and you will have to
|
||
|
|
setup port forwardings for server daemons.
|
||
|
|
</div></p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
So here are the neccessary settings. Pages you don't need to change do not have an image linked.

Notify about new IP via Prowl service
|
||
|
|
=====================================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*Prowl* was originally thought as a remote notification service from MacOS *Growl* to the iPhone. But it provides a
|
||
|
|
great web-based API so that it can be used for any other purpose.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The [DD-WRT Wiki](http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Script_Execution) lists all the locations where you can place
|
||
|
|
scripts for automatic execution. As we want to be notified upon IP changes, the best event is the `wanup`. So create a
|
||
|
|
file `/tmp/etc/config/prowl.wanup`. In the [Script Examples](http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Script_Examples#Use_freedns.afraid.org_as_DDNS)
|
||
|
|
section, there's a nice DynDNS script which shows, how to get the current WAN IP and check whether it has changed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
With some modifications, it looks like this:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
{% highlight bash %}
|
||
|
|
#!/bin/sh
|
||
|
|
IFACE=ppp0
|
||
|
|
OLDFILE=/tmp/ipaddr.cache
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
OLD_IP=`cat $OLDFILE`
|
||
|
|
NEW_IP=`ifconfig ${IFACE} | sed '/.*inet addr:/!d;s///;s/ .*//'`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# Special (private) Unicode icons for the iPhone
|
||
|
|
PROWL_UP=""
|
||
|
|
PROWL_DISH=""
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
if [ "$NEW_IP" != "$OLD_IP" ]; then
|
||
|
|
/tmp/root/prowl.sh "ppp0 is $PROWL_UP" -2 "IP is $NEW_IP $PROWL_DISH"
|
||
|
|
echo $NEW_IP > $OLDFILE
|
||
|
|
echo Updated IP to $NEW_IP
|
||
|
|
fi
|
||
|
|
{% endhighlight %}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Put this file to `/tmp/etc/config/prowl.wanup`. The used `/tmp/root/prowl.sh` is the one you can find in the [[TODO:software:sh:http-post]] article.
