Hi i want to run wpa2 encryption on my DSL router but to that i need kmod-acx-mac80211 kmod, but this kmod is not in backfire 10.03.1 it is only in trunk, but i cant run trun on my router. So my questin is if i can to get that package to 10.03.1 and how?
i m quite new in linux, but i can compile openwrt by this :

http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/obtai … re.compile

but i dont know how to tell that i need package from trunk to backfire. (if it is possible)
tx for advices and sorry for my eng.

I have now built a version of backfire for ar7 with a recent kmod-acx-mac80211 included in it.
It also has other change wrt switch (to get mv88e6060 working again) and does not include luci web-interface out of the box.

(make sure you read Simon-Notes.txt)
This build does work on ADSL+Ethernet, but I have not yet tested wireless functionality.

I can't get the switch to work on build backfire-2011-07-30-r27838 as the driver doesn't seem to be being loaded.

I am trying to download the image builder so that I can experiment with drivers but it is being terminated after 30MB. Would you be able to help me get hold of the full archive ?

Thank You for any help.

FWIW, that build was before 10.03.1 was released....
If you read Simon-Notes.txt there it will tell you that actually that driver build never seems to work/load .

I believe, the problem with the switch was fixed in the 10.03.1 release version -- i.e. all 4 Ethernet ports work.  AFAIK there has never been working VLAN configuration support for that marvell chipset ethernet.

Also, to have WPA2 Wireless working (TNETW1130 ONLY -- e.g. DG834Gv2), NOT on TNETW1350A (e.g. DG834Gv3) you need a later wireless driver in e.g. a 'trunk' build which I may be able to find you at least a binary of...

The build linked above is probably not so useful any more .
