Recommend a wifi dongle for access point setup

[Wrechid]

ok, i think i got it... this is what i have in the interfaces file:

Quote:auto lo

iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp

iface default inet dhcp

auto wlan0
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
address 192.168.10.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
up iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.ipv4.nat

dhcp server was looking for a static setting in the "iface wlan0 inet static"
and removed the wpa line...

and this is my ifconfig:

Quote:eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr b8:27:eb:2b:1d:19

its showing ip addys for wlan0 now...

i've rebooted it a couple times, i have internet on phone while wifi connected to RPi... DHCP is also working... can control XBMC from phone app with both ip addys, eth0-192.168.2.215 and wlan0-192.168.10.1...
