Wireless Access Point Compatibility
Manufacturer Model Firmware Tested Notes
Linksys WCG200-CC Yes Tested with no security; also with WEP 128 passphrase. See Sharing_User_Experiences_with_OLPC_XO_Wifi_Connectivity_-_Glew_2007_Jan for trick.
Linksys WRT54G 4.21.1 1/20/2007 Yes Use channel 1, 6, or 11 (see Wifi_Connectivity#Channel).
Linksys WRT54GL OpenWRT WhiteRussian (RC4) Yes tested using no security (MAC based access control) on channel 3
Linksys WRT54GL v4.30.11, Aug. 7, 2007 Yes WPA2 via Wpa.sh, G-only on channel 6
Actiontec MI424WR Unknown Yes
D-Link DIR-615 2.20 Yes worked with WPA2 (personal) and the Wpa.sh script
2Wire 3800HGV-B Gateway 5.29.105.76 Yes ATT Uverse supplied, changed WPA to WEP-open and assigned to channel 8 as opposed to Automatic
2Wire 2700HG-B GATEWAY 4.25.19 Unsecured Didn't work / couldn't find on channel 4. Changed to channel 5 and XO found it and connected just fine. Unsecured network.
Airlink 101 AR525W v1.0.50 Yes Used WEP-Open with 128-bit hex key password
Apple AirPort Express 6.3 Yes For WEP provide passphrase and select: ASCII + Shared key
TRENDnet TEW432BRP_c1 v2.00.0012 WEP Does not show up in neighborhood until you attempt to connect to another WAP (e.g. at a neighbors house). The Trendnet then immediately shows up, and you can connect to it instead. Is on channel 9, maybe 1,6,11 would work better.
Westell D90-327W15-06 VER:4.03.02.04 Yes Security: WEP, Type: Open System, 128-bit key password (13 characters)
FON La Fonera 2100E Release: 0.7.1.2 Yes Security: WEP, Type: Open System, 64-bit key password
NETGEAR WPN824v2 V2.0.10_1.2.17 Yes G1G1 Tested WEP 128-bit PSK with 1.2.17 firmware (XO builds 650, 653), WPA2 CCMP PSK with 2.0.10 firmware (on build joyride-1500). Saw occasional failures to connect. When switching from WEP to WPA2, had to wipe out /home/olpc/.sugar/default/nm/networks.cfg, use the Wpa.sh script, and reboot. Working fine now.
