Friis Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 There are a few topics on wifi on unraid. But none seem to give info on what I would like to know. I got a motherboard with 3 ethernet controllers and 1 wifi controller. I would like for the wifi controller to act as an access point for wireless devices. I could create another VM which bridges the virtual network of unraid with wifi, but I find it a bit much creating a VM just for that. I could also connect an access point to one of my ethernet ports, but I am trying to reduce the amount of devices. Is it possible to request a feature for unraid to support being an access point? (I already have a pfsense VM, but because of drivers for freebsd does not exist for that controller, I cannot use it) Link to comment
CHBMB Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Honestly, this is trying to get a device to do something that it was never designed to do, Unraid doesn't include any WiFi drivers afaik. If you're running pfsense as a router then get a proper WiFi access point, like Unifi, you won't regret it. I'm not an employee of LimeTech but I'm like 100% sure this won't become an implemented feature. Link to comment
