OMG! How awesome is it that we have both a Phantom enthusiast and a Linux Guru on the same Forum! I just about shi+ my pants when I started reading "linuxkid's" post and saw him hacking away at the repeater and camera. Pardon my enthusiasm, but I've spent the better part of 6 hours (so far) trying to hack an ARGtek ARG1210 WLAN 11n High Power Access Point (
http://www.argtek.com/style/frame/t...59305&rid=56306&id=301119&content_set=color_1) trying to get it to replicate the functionality of the Phantom Repeater. Imagine my surprise when I found this thread!
Before I go any further, allow me to express my gratitude to "linuxkid" for this ( and your other) post/s! I look forward to reading your other ones sometime soon. Now that I've sent you some flowers, I'm going to put you to work answering some questions:
1.) What kind of repeater is it? (from a software standpoint) As I am sure you are aware, there are many different kinds.
1a.) Repeater - A wireless repeater with DHCP & NAT enabled, clients on different subnet from host AP (primary router). Hosts connected to one router can not see hosts connected to other routers
1b.) Repeater bridge - A wireless repeater with DHCP & NAT disabled, clients on same subnet as host AP (primary router). That is, all hosts can see one another
1c.) Universal Repeater - Uses a program/script called AutoAP to keep a connection to the nearest/best host AP
1d.) etc.
2.) Is there a DHCP Server in play? If so, where (aircraft or repeater)? Or are all the devices on the Phantom network statically assigned (other than your phone or tablet)
3.) In the case of the P2V (not +) is the WiFi in the camera module simply a WiFi client or another Access Point?
4.) Has anyone tested your instructions in the OP on a P2V (not +)? Does it also work on the Vision?
So as to not overwhelm, I'll stop there. I look forward to your reply! :mrgreen:
