Eh? I'm using a Hermes chipset right now in bss mode. Or are you
talking about hostap that we support with prism?
: So we use
: IBSS, and on the orinoco clients it shows up in their client manager as
: peer-to-peer instead of access point. Anyways, we set the cards to
: channels 1,6, and 11, but sooner or later it always defaults back to
: channel 10. Any way to lock a orinoco in IBSS mode to a certain channel?
How are you doing it? I have two hermes card with the following
command:
inet 1.2.3.4 netmask 0xffffff00 media DS1 mediaopt adhoc ssid \
SsidMio channel 3 wepmode on wepkey SekRit
(well, except for the wepkey :-).
I have friends that are using mediaopt ibss-create instead.
