FR as wifi access point

[Ed Kapitein]

Hi,

I managed to set up ad-hoc networking between my laptop and fr with the
following scripts:

on the FR:
#!/bin/bash
echo s3c2440-sdi >/sys/bus/platform/drivers/s3c2440-sdi/unbind
sleep 2
modprobe -vr ar6000
sleep 2
modprobe -v ar6000 debuglevel=5
sleep 5
echo s3c2440-sdi >/sys/bus/platform/drivers/s3c2440-sdi/bind
sleep 2
iwconfig eth0 mode ad-hoc
sleep 2
iwconfig eth0 channel 11
sleep 2
iwconfig eth0 essid happy
sleep 2
ifconfig eth0 192.168.123.1 netmask 255.255.255.0

on the laptop:
#!/bin/bash
modprobe -vr iwlagn
sleep 2
modprobe -v iwlagn
sleep 2
iwconfig wlan0 mode ad-hoc
sleep 2
iwconfig wlan0 channel 11
sleep 2
iwconfig wlan0 essid happy
sleep 2
ifconfig wlan0 192.168.123.2 netmask 255.255.255.0

I hope it saves someone 5 minutes of scripting :-)

Kind regards,
Ed
