I was wondering if it is possible to Disable the SSID being repeated in Wireless repeater mode on my ASUS N13 UB1. It can be done like this:

1. Setup the wireless repeater
2. Add a virtual Interface.
3. Use the command "ifconfig ra0 down". (you can use a script to check if your repeater interface has connected and then execute this).

Voila, Now your primary wireless interface is gone! (but still connected to the repeater interface)
Benefits:
1.You can set AP isloation etc on the virtual interface if you don't need to allow access only to internet.
2.Better privacy than simple Hiding of SSID.

Is this a already widely known fact? Embarassed
Any inputs?
