Hi Olimex.
Is it possible to change the wifi module from Realtek by another? For example, Atheros(ath9k_htc), Intersil/Conexant(p54usb), Ralink(rt2800usb)... or any other, whose driver supports AP mode.
The names in parentheses are examples of drivers that support AP mode and are USB.
I tried to create an access point wifi with rtl8192cu but it did not work.
to the best of my knowledge RTL8188CU also support AP
The module create the access point, but i can not connect. I tried by pc, smart phone... but dont works.
I searched on the internet, and all the sites all say the same thing: is not possible to connect to the access point created by RTLxxxx.
Here have a table with drivers that support AP mode: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers (http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers)
Hi olimex,
So, do you think possible and/or viable to change the module? What you say? ;)
