software appliance with WLAN

derRayman
Hello Guys,

i saw that there will be SGs released with onboard wlan SG105w - SG135w. 

Does some one know if it will be possible to get also integrated wlan working on software appliances?

    I rebooted and the AP came back, so it seems sort of hit or miss.  Maybe doing a manual "modprobe ath9k" to ensure the Atheros kernel module is loaded would do the trick but I have not tested.

    I installed also the Compex AP in a APU4D with Software UTM. It works, but i want two WLANs, one for intern and one for guests with Hotspot function.
    So, i know that´s impossible, because the "localwifi0" cannot be a bridge to vlan.

    And now my question is, can i install another Compex WLAN AP in the second mPCI Slot and with that i get a "localwifi1" intferface? Or only 1 local WLAN AP possible?

    greetings

    Hi guys,

    i have a mini iTX box running Sophos UTM 9.3 with a built-in Azurewave 802.11 b/g/n Wireless USB Half Mini card which seems that isn't recognized by Sophos UTM. I've tried the workaround of editing the hostapd config file with no success. Any ideas of how this can be identified from Sophos UTM and use it as an access point?

    I read on the above posts that using a Compex WLE200NX a/b/g/n miniPCI express radio card is compatible using the fix and can be used as an access point. Is this solution still working? If so, i'm thinking of purchasing the Atheros card and replace it with my current Azurewave.

    yes.

    I used an Atheros AR5BXB92 which should be the same originally used in sophos SG1xxW devs.

    But I also had to do the edit in /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf-default. After rebooting the device I was able to find the ssid and join the wireless network.
