A Very Simple Wireless Access Point

EverydayDiesel · #1 **(View Single Post)** 4th July 2014

Hello everyone.

I am trying to setup a basic wireless internet using wpa2 and a dhcpd server that will hand out clients.

I am following along in the book of PF and so far I am able to see the wireless adapter and connect to it. However I am not able to obtain an ip address on the client.

/etc/dhcpd.interfaces

Code:

athn0

Code:

up media autoselect mode 11g chan 1 nwid unwiredbsd nwkey 0x1deadbeef9
dhcp

After a reboot it appears that openbsd is looking to obtain a ip address via dhcp? I want the clients to get the ip address and openbsd to hand them out with dhcpd.

I even tried starting httpd athn0 but had no luck

What am I doing wrong here? Why can I not get a ip address on the client?
