It's kinda sad that this isn't more widely known, it's one of the n8x0s' best success stories IMHO.

Part two of my question; Does this open source driver support Monitor mode / Injection

I haven't tried it myself, but http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/p54#working suggests yes to both.

Enough?? Yes!!

But the actual hack value of my N900 is enough for me.

Sometimes I would really want less hack value and more telephone and PDA.

I could control spaceships with my N900 but I can't simply manage my contacts without a ****ing mess.

GOD BLESS THE BLUES!!

Yeah, well, then OpenWrt probably isn't the distribution you're looking for.

Let's please not turn this thread into another N900-bashing one, especially since it has nothing to do with the N900 in the first place.

Scary. But might work?

Dunno, I won't be able to try it for a few hours at least, plus I'm a bit wary (having already sacrificed the webcam while trying hand-rolling mainline kernels a while ago) - new N810s seem impossible to find these days...

So how functional is it at this point I see there are quite a few patches in the openwrt repo now? Has anyone tried this on an n800 (which I have) they are pretty cheap on ebay now ~50-60 bucks.

I am wondering if anyone have ever achieved the use of n810 as a wireless bridge.
If so, could you point me out in the right direction for a tutorial on that?

?
Please assume that I already follow the tutorial on:

http://bues.ch/cms/hacking/n810-openwrt.html

and I am expecting in the best case scenario something like:

http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Wireless_Bridge

I am guessing that the board of the N810 would make for a powerful and smart router.... Only concern is the battery life being reduced by keeping it connected to charger all the time (Currently owned 4.2 charging stations only produce 300 mah so no viable mod there...)

Long life to all devices... including the n810...
