The WiFi settings are configured in the file \texttt{/etc/config/wireless}
 | 
						|
(currently supported on Broadcom only). When booting the router for the first time
 | 
						|
it should detect your card and create a sample configuration that looks like this:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
\begin{Verbatim}
 | 
						|
config wifi-device  wl0
 | 
						|
    option type     broadcom
 | 
						|
    option channel  5
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
config wifi-iface
 | 
						|
    option device   wl0
 | 
						|
    option mode     ap
 | 
						|
    option ssid     OpenWrt
 | 
						|
    option hidden   0
 | 
						|
    option encryption none
 | 
						|
\end{Verbatim}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
There are two types of config sections in this file. The '\texttt{wifi-device}' refers to
 | 
						|
the physical wifi interface and '\texttt{wifi-iface}' configures a virtual interface on top
 | 
						|
of that (if supported by the driver).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
\paragraph{Options for the \texttt{wifi-device}:}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
\begin{itemize}
 | 
						|
	\item \texttt{type} \\
 | 
						|
		The driver to use for this interface.
 | 
						|
	
 | 
						|
	\item \texttt{country} \\
 | 
						|
		The country code used to determine the regulatory settings.
 | 
						|
	
 | 
						|
	\item \texttt{channel} \\
 | 
						|
		The wifi channel (1-14, depending on your country setting).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	\item \texttt{maxassoc} \\
 | 
						|
		Maximum number of associated clients
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
\end{itemize}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
\paragraph{Options for the \texttt{wifi-iface}:}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
\begin{itemize}
 | 
						|
	\item \texttt{mode} \\
 | 
						|
		Operating mode:
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
			\item \texttt{wds} \\
 | 
						|
				WDS point-to-point link
 | 
						|
				
 | 
						|
		\end{itemize}
 | 
						|
	\item \texttt{network} \\
 | 
						|
		Selects the interface section from \texttt{/etc/config/network} to be
 | 
						|
		used with this interface
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	\item \texttt{encryption} \\
 | 
						|
		Encryption setting. Accepts the following values:
 | 
						|
		
 | 
						|
		\begin{itemize}
 | 
						|
			\item \texttt{psk}, \texttt{psk2} \\
 | 
						|
				WPA(2) Pre-shared Key
 | 
						|
				
 | 
						|
			\item \texttt{wpa}, \texttt{wpa2} \\
 | 
						|
				WPA(2) RADIUS
 | 
						|
				
 | 
						|
		\end{itemize}
 | 
						|
		
 | 
						|
	\item \texttt{key} (wpa and psk) \\
 | 
						|
		Either the WPA key (PSK mode) or the RADIUS shared secret (WPA RADIUS mode)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	\item \texttt{server} (wpa) \\
 | 
						|
		The RADIUS server address
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
	\item \texttt{port} (wpa) \\
 |

\end{itemize}
 |

\paragraph{Limitations:}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
\begin{itemize}

 | 
						|
			\item 1x \texttt{sta}, 0-3x \texttt{ap}
 | 
						|
			\item 1-4x \texttt{ap}
 | 
						|
			\item 1x \texttt{adhoc}
 | 
						|
		\end{itemize}
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
		WDS links can only be used in pure AP mode and can't use WEP (except when sharing the
 | 
						|
		settings with the master interface, which is done automatically).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
