Hi, I'm going to buy a Linksys WUSB54G v4 wireless adapter and I'd like to use it to set up an access point with hostapd (but not only for this purpose, of course)
I read in the man pages that: "The ural driver supports automatic control of the transmit speed in BSS mode only. Therefore the use of a ural adapter in Host AP mode is discouraged." [ural(4) -current] So, it seems that if I put ural(4) in hostap mode I can't get automatic change of the trasmission rate. The question is: what kind of problems I will face imposing a fixed speed? Will the other stations deassociate whenever the signal strength goes under a certain limit? I will be forced to use the minimum speed? Are there any workarounds for this issue? P.S.: Well, more than a couple of question, I see... -- http://swpat.ffii.org/ Giuseppe Argentieri
