1 Project description

My ASUS WL-500GP WLAN router is a wonderful little device. Only, I want to station it as part of DB0MHB. There it is meant to act as a relay for Packet Radio and Echolink and whatever else. For these purposes, the legacy software on it is not very useful. Instead, I want to use the device as a low power fully fledged and networked computer on an outpost in nature.

I have thus learned to

  • customize the OpenWRT sources (buildroot)
  • develop / compile my own OpenWRT image
  • flash the image
  • customize the OpenWRT installation
  • make it speak to special hardware such as this
