Hi All,

I am playing around with my Asus wifi adapter based on RTL8188SU. I was able to create a new interface wlan0 using the rsu0 module. But the issue is that the firewall is not listing/connecting to the BSS id. Any help is appreciated. What I am trying to do is something different. I am running OPNsense on a virtual environment inside a proxmox box. I managed to passthrough the usb adapter to opnsense vm. I want to implement WAN loadbalancing using ISP link and my mobile 4G, ie, if I can manage to connect the firewall to my phones hotspot, I will use the two links for loadbalancing/sharing. Your help and suggestions are highly appreciated.

Thank you,
Regards,
Bobby Thomas

Hi!

I set up a box with wifi as WAN (search forum ;-) ) it is not that reliable, depending on the access point on the other end of the connection, the driver and and and and...

I use this setup just for traveling as a safer alternative to direct wifi use and to establish my tunnels automagically.
kind regards
