(currently supported on Broadcom only). When booting the router for the first time
it should detect your card and create a sample configuration that looks like this:

\begin{Verbatim}
config wifi-device  wl0
    option type     broadcom
    option channel  5

config wifi-iface
    option device   wl0
    option mode     ap
    option ssid     OpenWrt
    option hidden   0
    option encryption none
\end{Verbatim}

There are two types of config sections in this file. The '\texttt{wifi-device}' refers to
the physical wifi interface and '\texttt{wifi-iface}' configures a virtual interface on top
of that (if supported by the driver).

\paragraph{Options for the \texttt{wifi-device}:}

\begin{itemize}
	\item \texttt{type} \\
		The driver to use for this interface.
	
	\item \texttt{country} \\
		The country code used to determine the regulatory settings.
	
	\item \texttt{channel} \\
		The wifi channel (1-14, depending on your country setting).

	\item \texttt{maxassoc} \\
		Maximum number of associated clients

\end{itemize}

\paragraph{Options for the \texttt{wifi-iface}:}

\begin{itemize}
	\item \texttt{mode} \\
		Operating mode:
		
		\begin{itemize}
			\item \texttt{ap} \\
				Access point mode

			\item \texttt{sta} \\
				Client mode

			\item \texttt{adhoc} \\
				Ad-Hoc mode

			\item \texttt{wds} \\
				WDS point-to-point link
				
		\end{itemize}
	\item \texttt{network} \\
		Selects the interface section from \texttt{/etc/config/network} to be
		used with this interface

	\item \texttt{encryption} \\
		Encryption setting. Accepts the following values:
		
		\begin{itemize}
			\item \texttt{psk}, \texttt{psk2} \\
				WPA(2) Pre-shared Key
				
			\item \texttt{wpa}, \texttt{wpa2} \\
				WPA(2) RADIUS
				
		\end{itemize}
		
	\item \texttt{key} (wpa and psk) \\
		Either the WPA key (PSK mode) or the RADIUS shared secret (WPA RADIUS mode)

	\item \texttt{server} (wpa) \\
		The RADIUS server address

	\item \texttt{port} (wpa) \\
		The RADIUS server port

\end{itemize}

\paragraph{Limitations:}

\begin{itemize}
	\item \textbf{Broadcom}: \\
		Only the following mode combinations are supported:
		
		\begin{itemize}
			\item 1x \texttt{sta}, 0-3x \texttt{ap}
			\item 1-4x \texttt{ap}
			\item 1x \texttt{adhoc}
		\end{itemize}

		WDS links can only be used in pure AP mode and can't use WEP (except when sharing the
		settings with the master interface, which is done automatically).

\end{itemize}
