16.1 Legacy Series / Wireless Howto

« on: March 02, 2016, 11:17:06 am »

Hi

I have a box with an Compex WLE200NX wireless card.
How can I create two SSIDs for an internal and external (guest) wlan?
I found out, I have one interface ath0 and I can create one additional under Interfaces -> Wireless -> Devices which will be ath0_wlan1. A second one is not possible, OPNsense give me the error

Code: [Select]

Error creating interface with mode Infrastructure (BSS). The ath0 interface may not support creating more clones with the selected mode.
Even when ath0_wlan1 is on Access Point Mode.

So after this I could assign ath0 and ath0_wlan1 to an interface - is this correct?

Hardware and Performance / APU.2C2 performance

« on: February 05, 2016, 04:22:30 pm »

Hi

I got a APU.2C2 for testing purposes from PC Engines. The hardware specs a really cool:

• GX-412TC quad core
• 2GB
• 3 Intel GigE

But yeah, more details are already here: https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=1556.msg4848

I'm not finished with testing, but at the first tests I "only" got something around 400Mbit/s with classical NAT/firewalling. Tests with iperf3 sometimes reported around 611Mbit/s. But daily examples with ftp or jDownloader gave me good 390-400Mbit/s.

What do you think, is this all what the hardware can throughput? Any other experiences here with the new board?
