Linux Software Based AP
I've got a bunch of Linksys 802.11G PCI cards lying around here at work and wanted to put them to good use as make shift APs with a bunch of our older boxes.

Anyone have any great software for setting this up? Something to mimic a Linksys type AP would be great so I'm not stuck supporting them solely. I don't need WEP/WPA or anything, we have open APs with BlueSocket gateways.

Thanks!

I can setup a simple HostAP but was hoping someone has come across a great "frontend" to manage the AP with that isn't a full fledge hotspot software setup.

Most of the software discussed around here relates to making a Linksys AP mimic something else.

Now that I think about it... There is some windows software for Prism based cards.
