I had my WiFi working well, though I was never able to access the HM from outside my home network (I do have an external static IP and hostname through No-IP). Used an Edimax Nano as recommended in the Wiki. Last cook I had to keep rebooting to keep the connection going, so I bought a different WiFi adapter - the TP-Link as also recommended (assumed) in the Wiki.
In all of this I've changed so many things that I can't get the WiFi working again with either adapter, though I can get each of them working just fine on my desktop (which does not otherwise have WiFi).
My biggest confusion is with the OpenWRT interface itself - I just don't unuderstand all of it yet. I get all screwed up in whether I name my WiFi connection or leave it "wwan", whether to use Client or Access Point, whether I need to specify the Netmask, etc. etc. I don't even understand when I'm inputting info about my wireless router and when I'm inputting choices for the HM side of the connection.
Is there an overall instruction page to specify the order to set things up, and the settings that I need to use?
Or someone who would help me over the phone briefly?
Thank you !!
