I've found some great tut's online getting me to where I am now but I've come to a halt... My ethernet connect (using it to post here) works just fine however I'm having trouble getting online using only the wireless card. I dual boot Windows 7 wireless, no problem. My goal is to be able to go to my local coffee shop with wireless and from my home network. The below ifconfig was from my home net.
The internal wireless card is a Broadcom 1413.
The external wireless is a USB is a D-Link DWA-110.
I've read that the broadcom will be an issue so I bought the above USB.
Do I need to configure my hostapd.conf? I attempted to enter my routers MAC changing the first MAC address at the below line. Not sure I should have done that but I was getting desperate.
Now for the hostname.if file.
Let me know if you see anything I could change or if you need any more info so I can get online with the wireless USB. Thanks!
