i think also that

why wget?

uops! some people of wireless groups around spain are mantaining a group
of patches for linuxAP that add some features to actual linuxAP (sorry,
but the Changelog is in spanish):
1.- Kernel AODV support (it was not much hard to add ;))
2.- hostap 0.0.4
3.- hostap 0.0.3 (as 4 eliminates txpower function 'cause distortionates
    signal)
4.- busybox 1.00-pre2 (with some added features)
5.- openvpn (that's our last addition, but it's not all done yet ;))
6.- other minor changes (as a watchdog for the wireless card, that on
    some APs hangs until you reconfigure it)
    
we are also thinking on using a CVS to make all our changes as a branch
of the project, but opening a "global" CVS for all the interested
developers would IMHO be a good point for the community

ups! and the web page where we put our patches and images:
http://www.olotwireless.net/castella/linuxap.htm
(i can send you the patches if you tell me)

read you!

PD: all the changes we made are with the wl11000 architecture on mind,
but trying to put as much as possible on ./ instead of ./wl11000 (well,
part of this migration is work in progress :P)
