the bridge is working (wireless client connected at ath0).
the ca cert is more than the name. open the file and copy all enclosed by the PEM headers.

joke1981 uses a second router behind the bridge (page 3).

you can try to connect a wired client that should get the network config via dhcp.

why did you configure vaps?

I found this thread quite interesting but I was wondering what you are all doing there to establish the connection. I was running a LaFonera 2100 as a Wireless eduroam-Client with DD-WRT and since two days now a TP-Link TL-WR842ND in the same way (DD-WRT v24-sp2 (04/22/12) std - build 19081). I never edited the supplicant or anything else. I did everything in the Web-Interface of DD-WRT, so maybe I can help you a bit with my settings in the Wireless-Tab:

Basic-Settings:
Mode: Client
Network Mode: Mixed
Channel Width: 20MHz (Full)
SSID: eduroam

No changes in advanced settings needed, I just put the ACK Timing to 0 because I am quite far away from the AP.

Wireless-Security (now it gets interesting ):

Security-Mode: 802.1x
XSuplicant-Type: Students use Peap here, employees such as assistants use TTLS
User: your account@youruniversity.de
Anonymous Identity: anonymous
Password: your password
Phase2: auth=MSChapV2 (students) / auth=PAP (employees)
Public Server Certificate: -------BEGIN CERTIFICATE------- till --------------END CERTIFICATE---------------

And that was all...I get an automatic connection to the eduroam APs and quite quick a WAN IP. In the Setup->Basic Setup Tab of the router you need to configure WAN Connection Type to "Automatic DHCP"

dd-wrt uses odd web key encryption if tls is selected.
modifications of wpa_supplicant.conf switch to wpa/wpa2 encryption.

[JarodRussell]

For me, everything works well. I just wanted to point out, that it does not seem to be necessary to meddle around in the conf-files. It just works with the web-interface without any problems.

Can I know what should I put under public server cert?
I am required to have gd-class2-root.cer from https://certs.godaddy.com/anonymous/repository.pki

Thank you in advance.

[habeIchVergessen]

you have to enter the ca cert here. it's not mandatory.

Hi all,

I am trying to connect a wrt54gl v1.1 with the latest available firmware v24 presp2 build 14896 from 2010 to eduroam via the dd-wrt webinterface.

Unfortunately in the webinterface in client mode I can only choose between wpa psk and wep. There is no wpa enterprise, radius or 802.1x.

Could it be that the firmware version is too old? Could this functionality be integrated into the wrt54gl v1.1 firmware?

Thank you,
Benjamin

wireless security mode 802.11x is only avalible when you select client bridge mode.
also look for required binaries wpa_supplicant, hostapd and relayd.

[derfan]

thank you. is there a reason that this is only available in bridge mode? Is this in all versions of ddwrt?

[derfan]

i just tried this with a tp link router with a recent ddwrt from last month. this one supports 802.11x in client mode. it would be great to get an upgrade for the wrt54gl then..

[habeIchVergessen]

your router has 4mb flash only. i guess it's to small for 802.11x

[derfan]

on the other hand as you said it seems to work in bridge mode..

[spyder8]

Still have issues...

When I try to kill wpa_supplicant to start it in debug mode, it says that it is already started. In fact, I see that the process id of wpa_supplicant is constantly changing. Does anyone have an idea why this is happening? How can I stop wpa_supplicant from restarting itself?

It would really be great to see the output of wpa_supplicant to understand what is going wrong!

[habeIchVergessen]

try following:

killall wpa_supplicant && wpa_supplicant <your options>

maybe wpa_supplicant was compiled without debug.
