Setting a wireless access point on Ubuntu server 11.10
- by Solignis
I am trying to setup a wifi access point with my Ubuntu server.
I have managed to get my phone to connect the wireless and now it get a DHCP lease.
Though it still cannot ping out or get pinged by anything on my network.
I am prety sure my problem is iptables, but I not sure what would be wrong.
Here is what my rules look like. (The ones pertaining to the bridge interface)
# Allow traffic to / from wireless bridge interface
iptables -A INPUT -i br0 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A OUTPUT -o br0 -j ACCEPT
I am guessing my rules are a little lean, the bridge exists on the same subnet as everything else on my network, I am using a 10.0.0.0/24 subnet.
EDIT
Oh yeah I should mention also, when I do a ping test, I get Destination Host Unreachable as the error.
