community wifi

[binary_dreamer]

Hi.
In my community there is a free wifi available for its citizens.
the problem is that in my house i do not have access to that wifi from all the places in house.
I have tried several different cards without success.
Although there is a spot in my house where i can have nice and clear reception to the wifi.
is there a way to modify a fritz 7140 to get the wifi signal from the community and send it over the ethernet ports?
If yes please let me know how.

I'm sorry but the fritz doesn't have the Bridge function. You can use one access-point connected via LAN by your fritz.

You could connect your fritzbox to another wireless access point thru WDS, it only works in non-encrypted or WEP mode, WPAx is available just for connecting to another fritzbox.

If you like to get into experimetation you could suppose to modify the firmware of your fritz and include the wireless client mode from wrt firmware and implementing it by scripts or adhoc program written by you.

Last choice is to flash your fritzbox installing a wrt firmware, you can check the status of the project in wrt developer sites , i.e. www.openwrt.org.

Hope that helps you , feel free to post your progress.

Ciao.

Hi Massinge.
Could you tell me if there is any specific needs in the config of the fritz to work?

@Massinge: hai notizia di esperimenti circa l'inserimento della funzione wifi client-mode, nel firmware del fritz , oppure caricando i vari *wrt* in modo da utilizzare il fritz come repeater per reti protette con wpa* ?

Grazie,

Ciao.

Che io sappia l'Open-wrt su Fritz era fermo ad una fase puramente sperimentale, non spiacerebbe affatto vedere un tale firmware su fritz, purtroppo si perderebebro le funzionalità voip dato che i firmware Wrt sono esclusivamente dedicati ai router /access-point e non implementano il voip (oltretutto AVM ha delle specifiche hardware tutte sue, che non si ripetono in altri modelli di altri produttori).

Non ho notizia circa l'implementazione di quella funzionalità in particolare.

@binary_dreamer: No specific config needs.
