Setting Up a Wireless Internet Connection
Objectives
We assume here that you want to create a wireless access point secured by WPA/WPA2. Instructions for using WEP will not be given.
For now, this only includes instructions for pci-cards supported by the hostap and kernel drivers (I use an Atheros WLAN NIC, supported by the ath5k driver). Feedback is welcome about what it takes to make other cards (other chipsets as well as PC-Card and USB models) to work.
Declare the packages
To build a wireless access point one needs to add the Package hostapd.lrp to leaf.cfg.
The dependencies libssl.lrp, libcrpto.lrp and libnl.lrp will be loaded automatically.
