Re: access point with 2 wifi usb
I don't know if it's possible, but you can try.
Follow the instructions in this tutorial: http://learn.adafruit.com/setting-up-a- ... cess-point , using wlan0 as the access point and wlan1 as the network wlan0 connects to.

Re: access point with 2 wifi usb
You'd need to set up the wlan0 interface so it accepts an address from the wireless network that will provide your internet connection:
or if you want to use a static IP address:
Then you'd configure wlan1 according to the instructions in the tutorial.
Code: Select all
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wpa-ssid "ssid"
wpa-psk "password"
Code: Select all
iface wlan0 inet static
address 192.168.0.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.0.1

Re: access point with 2 wifi usb

Re: access point with 2 wifi usb
I generally set up access to open networks in /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf, but IIRC you can turn off the requirement for a password using this in /etc/network/interfaces using this line:
Code: Select all
wpa-key-mgmt NONE
