Wireless

Setting up a Wireless Access Point with Ubuntu Raring Ringtail

I’ve finally gotten sick of having a terrible wireless signal in my room, and I have a server in my office (hard wired via gigabit) so I figured I’d set it up as a wireless access point. There’s a lot of information in various places on how to set everything up, so I figured I’d try to wrangle everything in 1 spot.

Install the card.

I used a TP-Link WDN4800. Sadly I don’t have a list of all the compatible wireless cards, but it seems that having something based on the Atheros chipset is a good thing.
