BCW-OpenWRT is a custom firmware compiled for community networking that uses OpenWRT.
The firmware currently consists of the following software:
- OpenWRT - Latest Release Candidate to Version 1.0
- OpenVPN
- webif - Web Interface written with haserl, decided to use this after limited to poor success with the bcw-interface
- wondershaper - For Bandwidth Shaping, not per user, but will prevent WRTs from totally killing an internet connection
The firmware will use standard squash-fs instead of the jffs2.
Things that are done:
WifiDog in the Buildroot - DONE, Ile Sans Fil submitted a patch, in OpenWRT Experimental as a selectable option.
- OLSR in Buildroot - DONE, in White Russian RC3 and Experimental as an option
