- Power on two SDR boards. Call one board "AP board" and the other "client board". On each board, the TX and RX antenna should vertical/orthogonal to each other as much as possible to gain a good TX/RX isolation.
|
|
- Connect a computer to the AP board via Ethernet cable. The computer should have static IP 192.168.10.1. Open a terminal on the computer, and then in the terminal:
|
|
```
|
|
ssh root@192.168.10.122
|
|
(password: openwifi)
|
|
cd openwifi
|
|
./fosdem.sh
|
|
(It will create a WiFi AP by hostapd program with config file: hostapd-openwifi.conf)
|
|
(Wait for the script completed)
|
|
cat /proc/interrupts
|
|
(Execute the "cat ..." command for several times)
|
|
(You should see the number of "sdr,tx_itrpt1" grows, because it sends the "openwifi" beacon periodically)
|
|
```
|
|
- Connect another computer to the client board via Ethernet cable. The computer should have static IP 192.168.10.1. Open a terminal on the computer, and then in the terminal:
|
|
```
|
|
ssh root@192.168.10.122
|
|
(password: openwifi)
|
|
service network-manager stop
|
|
cd openwifi
|
|
./wgd.sh
|
|
(Wait for the script completed)
|
|
ifconfig sdr0 up
|
|
iwlist sdr0 scan
|
|
(The "openwifi" AP should be listed in the scanning results)
|
|
iwconfig sdr0 essid openwifi
|
|
```
|
|
- Now the client is trying to associate with the AP. The AP board terminal should print like:
|
|
```
|
|
...
|
|
sdr0: AP-STA-CONNECTED 66:55:44:33:22:58
|
|
sdr0: STA 66:55:44:33:22:58 RADIUS: starting accounting session 1FF1C1B4-00000001
|
|
```
|
|
If not, please adjust antenna/distance and re-run the commands on the client side.
|
|
|
|
- After association is done, in the terminal of client:
|
|
```
|
|
dhclient sdr0
|
|
(Wait for it completed)
|
|
ifconfig sdr0
|
|
(Now you should see the IP address like 192.168.13.x allocated by AP)
|
|
./set_csma_normal.sh
|
|
ping 192.168.13.1
|
|
(Ping the AP)
|
|
```
|
|
Now the communication link should be already setup between the AP and the client.
