TomatoUSB

Hi,

currently, I have a main root router connects to internet modem (WAN) and 3 wireless APs on the LAN ports. I also disable the WIFI on the root router to prevent overheated and less CPU usage.

I have questions:

1. I connect my computer to one of AP and then I went to Tomato web page, I found my computer is listed as wired instead of wireless device in the Device Lists. is it possible to make the page lists my computer as wireless? what kind of setup I need to do? such as create a different VLAN IP range? (I don't want to register MAC one by one…)
2. Is there anyway I can do one store shopping for WIFI setting? for example, just change one WIFI password, and all AP will take it.
3. How do people manage WIFI connections if those connections are from AP/router behind the main Tomato router?

thanks a lot!

is it possible to make the page lists my computer as wireless?

No. Not possible. The connections are coming into the Tomato router via LAN port. Wired is what is is supposed to show.

Nicht.

Access restrictions in the ADMIN page of the slave AP.
