| 803563 | 2009-08-23 09:36:00 | Hey all, I'm running DD-WRT on an Asus WL-520GU router functioning as a repeater bridge. I've just upgraded the security on my network to WPA2 - all seems to be working well, but my old laptop (a 2001 IBM A22e with a PCMCIA WLAN card) doesn't seems to support WPA2. I don't want to roll back to WPA just because of that old laptop, and was wondering whether it is possible, using DD-WRT, to create a second SSID using MAC address filtering, and WPA just for that laptop. Is this possible? No biggie if it's not - I'll just use Cat5 :p Thanks :) |

| 803565 | 2009-08-23 11:15:00 | Yes, it has XP SP3. I have supposedly created a new SSID (wl0.2 with no security), but it does not show up in the list of SSIDs when I scan the air. The SSID is set to broadcast. |

| 803566 | 2009-08-23 11:18:00 | Did you create a new SSID or BSSID? | Blam (54) | ||
| 803567 | 2009-08-23 11:20:00 | SSID, I don't see anything to do with BSSIDs on the web interface. | jwil1 (65) | ||

| 803571 | 2009-08-24 20:38:00 | Yes, just create a new virtual wireless interface, you can set the security to something completely different. www.dd-wrt.com |
