Hi, there is a customized firmware that use the multi-ssid or guest account like this official beta firmware 1.9.4_6?
I tryed to use this official but there is a bug on guest account, is impossible for wireless client receive ip from an external DHCP server, and the ip assigned to the guest account is not pingable.

No sources, no firmware. Drop a message to ASUS asking for firmware sources, as otherwise I'm unable to build anything.

Hi,
is it possible that the bug (wireless client connected to guest account do not receive ip from external dhcp) is caused because my wl500g deluxe use bugged bootloader ?

nvram get hardware_version

it returns: WL500gx-01-03-01-33

Hi all. Here is GPL source code for 1.9.5.0 firmware.

4Oleg: will you be able to build your custom firmware based on this Asus code?

I was jaust playing around with the Sources 1.9.5.0 from Asus
and I found this:

    160         int pid;
    161
    162 #if 1 // Thanks for Oleg
    163         nvram_set("wan_auth_t", "FAIL");
    164 #else
    165

So you know for sure they take a look at this forum, and they probably understand, what kind of sources we need to get a 2.6 kernel build.

And when you take a look at the new wl.o module you'll see that this is a newer one, I#m quit sure that ASUS does have the sources and didn't buy just the binary from Broadcom. So why they don't give it to us ???

I think it should be GPLed too, isn't it ??

EDIT:

not only in this File in a lot more !!!

[TinyRK]

Thats kind of cool!
OLEG in the source, thats quite funny

I have never thought, that a source, like the one above has over 100MB!
