Hello,
            I am trying to build a hotspot for freebsd I was wondering how something like this would be made, is there already one out there I can use. I would need it to redirect users to some web page ran off apache that can send their logon info to the radius server also making it so they can't browse the net until they were authenticated with the radius server. My other problem is I am trying to set an orinoco pcmcia card to ap-mode and it won't work it gives me the error..."ifconfig: SIOCSIFMEDIA (mediaopt): Device not configured" I have tried many different ways to make this card work and it won't, I use the command " ifconfig wi0 inet 192.168.0.1 netmask 0xfffffff0 ssid my_net channel 11 media DS/11Mbps mediaopt hostap up". If I switch the device to ath1 for my atheros card ti works fine..I REALLY need help with these 2 problems

please email to staticblackz at hotmail.com or staticblackz at gmail.com thank you
