  1. additional difference between fon2.0g -> fon2.0n * NO (at least worse) injection capabilities and thus a really BAD deal
  2. I heard rumors http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=322755#322755 that the Fonera 2.0n has a Ralink wireless chipset - thus this device is definitely not for me!
  3. There's a topic over at fonerahacks covering serial flashing of dd-wrt - that might provide you the information you need http://www.fonerahacks.com/forums/viewtopi...p?f=4&t=302 expedition utilizes load -r -v -b %{FREEMEMLO} linux.bin -m xmodem for transferring the files - maybe the -m switch does the trick.
  4. SDHC cards are supported by Piranha 2, the packages on external media topic is covered here http://oldwiki.openwrt.org/PackagesOnExternalMediaHowTo.html at the very bottom of the page best, orange
  5. While this is certainly everyone's own decision, I cannot really see the point of using ANY of these various GUI flashers - besides the before-mentioned Fon Flash from Gargoyle - BUT even that one does NOT issue a "full initialization flash", a step that is urgently needed when e.g. moving from dd-wrt. Thus my question is simple: Is it really that difficult to flash the device manually utilizing the official install instructions at http://piranha.klashed.net/pub/inst? I mean, I'm certainly open for suggestions to make them even more straightforward for the users - no doubt about it! I'd just like to understand WHY you prefer bricking your devices with in-appropriate tools instead of appreciating to have the full control over the process. Please let me know! Just my 2c!
  6. JFYI, I notified our MMC guru at FoneraHacks via PM about your problem. I hope that he'll find the time to support you here. As I myself have no MMC card at all I guess I'll be of very little help here. One thing though... have you properly partitioned the MMC card with either a vfat or an ext2 filesystem(recommended)?
  7. I myself have no MMC card attached to my fon, but here's the logread output of another Piranha 2 user Feb 6 02:08:43 OpenWrt user.warn kernel: gpio-mmc: Failed to request mmc_spi module. Feb 6 02:08:43 OpenWrt user.info kernel: mmc_spi spi32766.0: SD/MMC host mmc0, no DMA, no WP, no poweroff Feb 6 02:08:43 OpenWrt user.info kernel: gpio-mmc: MMC-Card "fonera" attached to GPIO pins di=1, do=3, clk=4, cs=7 Feb 6 02:08:43 OpenWrt user.warn kernel: mmc_spi spi32766.0: can't change chip-select polarity Feb 6 02:08:44 OpenWrt user.info kernel: mmc0: new SDHC card on SPI Feb 6 02:08:44 OpenWrt user.info kernel: mmcblk0: mmc0:0000 SU04G 3979776KiB Feb 6 02:08:44 OpenWrt user.info kernel: mmcblk0: Feb 6 02:08:44 OpenWrt user.info kernel: p1 Please compare this with your own logread output. If it matches, the 1st MMC card partition should be /dev/mmcblk0p1 That's indeed a great idea - I have no experiences with it though. If you'll be able to come up with a reasonable solution, I'd be definitely willing to introduce your custom boot-scripts into upcoming Piranha versions - let me know please. To be honest, I have not that much of a clue about Jasager at all. I never used it by myself (yet) and just introduced it into Piranha 2 due to requests digininja and myself had out of the Hak5 community. digininja, would you please provide appropriate support to our fellow community members here? Thanks, orange
  8. You're welcome! I'm not sure if you got me right though... there's no need at all to install the driver. It's PRE-installed and PRE-configured. Just flash Piranha 2 and it should work without any other user interaction besides mounting the MMC card... supported filesystems are vfat and ext2.
  9. To be honest, this is a bit surprising to me. Piranha 2 ships with a working mmc-driver for kernel 2.6.26.5 pre-installed and even pre-configured for use with the Fonera. Thus it should just work out-of-the-box and is reported so by several other Piranha 2 users. Could you please give some more insight into the particular issue you have with it? The pre-configuration is based upon http://code.bastart.eu.org/files/fon_mmc/#instructions
  10. no, hostapd just takes care of the wpa2-psk encryption. If you configured Piranha 2 with an unencrypted network instead, there shouldn't be any hostapd running at all. digininja, please correct this if an unencrypted wireless has an impact on proper Jasager functionality as well. It's just a matter of choice whether you flash the squashfs or the jffs2 image - both images contain exactly the same packages. 1. squashfs has a higher compression, thus smaller image size 2. jffs2 is r/w, while squashfs is r/o with jffs2 overlay (thus pseudo r/w - google mini_fo for more information on this). If you know knoppix with aufs/unionfs... mini_fo is pretty much the same I never provided squashfs images in the past, but built them. To give the user the ultimate choice, I decided to upload both. Just decide on your personal preference which one to use! best, orange
  11. I'm sorry, but I have no more time to care about it currently. Piranha 2 alpha3/alpha4 is pretty stable and thus usable though - so, you don't need to shelve it. The only known error with alpha4=Jasager edition currently is, that you need to "killall hostapd" to destroy the wpa2-psk encrypted wireless ap Piranha 2 ships with by default and you'll be ready to use Jasager. HTH orange
  12. JFYI, http://piranha.klashed.net/2009/05/21/pira...opment-stalled/ best, orange
  13. Great, have fun with it! Jasager testing is highly appreciated. @all If you encounter any strange behaviour like jdogherman did, please report what method you used for flashing. The instructions at http://piranha.klashed.net/pub/inst are provided for a particular reason and I'd like to avoid wasting of time by "supporting" 3rd party tools like "EasyFlash" - that's imho the best example that the EASIEST way is to do it manually - the reason? it works!!! PS: if you urgently need a GUI based tool, I'd recommend Fon Flash from http://gargoyle-router.com/ - but to make this very clear - it's anyway the second best option to flash Piranha 2 as Fon Flash does e.g. NOT issue a full initialization flash and that might be urgently needed, especially if you're migrating from dd-wrt. Flashing manually is always preferred. Thanks in advance for considering this, orange
  14. Indeed, you need a kismet-server! The kismet-drone is fully preconfigured though for usage on the fon - it accepts connections on TCP port 3501 from all machines in range of 192.168.1.0/24 To change this configuration please adjust /etc/firewall.user respectively /etc/kismet_drone.conf HTH orange
  15. IC your point clearly. Let's try to find out what causes the issues you have. Have you flashed using the provided instructions? http://piranha.klashed.net/pub/inst Have you done a full initialization flash as described there? fis init -f Have you used fis create -l 0x00700000 rootfs while flashing the rootfs - Piranha 2 alpha4 differs here from stock OpenWrt (704kb kernel vs. 768kb kernel) while this is just a reason of the Archlinux GCC I'm using at my buildhost. As you see taiyed14 doesn't have the issues you encounter using exactely the same fon model. Please check everything you've done twice to be 100% sure it's not a user error - I'm sorry for the discomfort but it should work out-of-the-box. Never had an issue with alpha1..4, while running them on 2100 at least.
