  1. Thomas is correct. You have configured your Lamobo-R1 as a router. If you go this way then you have to: Run DHCP/DNS server (eg. dnsmasq) on the Lamobo-R1 to provide a network for the routed network (laptop side) Configure routing on the Lamobo-R1 (not NAT!) so that packets traverse to/from the 192.168.1.0/24 network (BBox2 side) and the routed network (laptop side) Simpler solution, which is from Thomas - configure the Lamobo-R1 as a bridge. Then DHCP assignment and DNS service will be provided by the Bbox2. If you do this, you don't need ebtables - unless you want to control access to the bridge.
  2. Thanks, Thomas for the suggestion! I know someone with a solder station - I think I will try the hardware mod. At worst I lose ~$30. Because of a traumatic event, I lost most of my memory of events from the early 90's to mid-2000's, including various Linux networking projects. Thanks to low-priced SBCs, I'm slowly getting back in the game .....
  3. Hello - First post to this forum - hope it isn't out of line. I have been running Armbian 4.5 on my Lamobo-R1 for a few months. WiFi has been stable, in that connections do not drop, as long as I disable 802.11n. However, there are two issues that may be related: 1) Throughput is crap - I max out at 8-10 Mbps - which fortunately is sufficient for my needs 2) Huge number of dropped RX packets. Anything I can do to improve this? I've cut & paste details below. Regards and thanks, Ashok P.S Thomas - if you read this post, perhaps you remember me from more than a decade ago on the netatalk list? hostapd -v hostapd v2.5-devel User space daemon for IEEE 802.11 AP management, IEEE 802.1X/WPA/WPA2/EAP/RADIUS Authenticator Copyright © 2002-2015, Jouni Malinen <j@w1.fi> and contributorsl ifconfig wlan0 wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 20:f4:1b:07:81:e2 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:197826 errors:0 dropped:3382973 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:207831 errors:0 dropped:104 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:95269704 (90.8 MiB) TX bytes:93574764 (89.2 MiB) uname -a Linux bpi-r1 3.4.110-sun7i #10 SMP PREEMPT Mon Dec 28 11:48:43 CET 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux cat /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf # interface interface=wlan0 bridge=br0 # CTRL-Interface ctrl_interface=/var/run/hostapd ctrl_interface_group=0 # driver driver=rtl871xdrv # SSID ssid=Ashok's Guest Network ignore_broadcast_ssid=0 # WLAN hw_mode=g ieee80211n=0 channel=1 max_num_sta=8 wmm_enabled=0 wme_enabled=0 # passphrase wpa_passphrase=###### # WPA2 auth_algs=1 wpa=2 wpa_key_mgmt=WPA-PSK wpa_pairwise=CCMP TKIP rsn_pairwise=CCMP
