qMp (Quick Mesh Project) - Packages

h1. Wireless autoconf

Wireless configuration for file: /etc/config/qmp

These are the default parameters sharing all wireless interfaces

<pre>

config 'qmp' 'wireless'

 	option 'driver' 'mac80211'

 	option 'country' 'UZ'

 	option 'bssid' '02:CA:FF:EE:BA:BE'

</pre>

driver can be `mac80211` for athXk, and `madwifi` for madwifi

And these are the config parameters for each wifi interface.

<pre>

 config 'wireless'

 	option 'channel' '44'

 	option 'mode' 'adhoc'

 	option 'name' 'qmp'

 	option 'mac' '00:80:48:6b:25:b5'

 config 'wireless'

 	option 'channel' '10'

 	option 'mode' 'ap'

 	option 'name' 'qmp.cat-AP'

 	option 'mac' '00:80:48:6b:25:b6'

</pre>

To apply this configuration to device, you must execute this commands: 

<pre>

. /etc/qmp/qmp_wireless.sh

qmp_configure_wifi

</pre>

This function takes the parameters from UCI and using the templates from: /etc/qmp/templates creates the openwrt wireless config

Templates are named like that: wireless.mac80211.adhoc wireless.madwifi.ap

Separed by dots, second name is the driver to use and third one is the mode. 

These templates looks like this:

<pre>

config wifi-device #QMP_DEVICE

	option type     mac80211

	option macaddr	#QMP_MAC

	option channel  #QMP_CHANNEL

        option diversity 0 # 0:off, 1:on

        option txantenna 0 # 0:auto, 1:main, 2:aux

        option rxantenna 0 # 0:auto, 1:main, 2:aux

	option country	#QMP_COUNTRY

	option outdoor	1

#	option txpower  1 

config wifi-iface

	option device	#QMP_DEVICE

	option mode	adhoc

	option ssid	#QMP_SSID

	option bssid	#QMP_BSSID

	option encryption none

</pre>

As you can see, the special words starting witch #QMP will be replaced by UCI parameters. 

So you can play a little with templates. For example, there is a template named: `wireless.mac80211.adhoc-n`
