ffwizard: setup of Private Access Point required to pass dialog

[niccokunzmann]

 Firmware Berlin (Hedy 0.3.0-alpha rev eab0343)
 Generic - ramips/rt305x

This is the self-compiled software, without vpn. When I access the GUI, Freifunk-assistent, I am required to type in a private access point password even when I do not make a tick at "private access point". I would expect to not see and need to do anything when the private access point option is not chosen.

(The only password that worked for me was "00000000")

Thanks for opening this issue. I've seen this already an noted in #418 .

It must relate to updated codebase of LuCI, that comes with the current LuCI-feed. Indeed any password with a length of min. 8; max. 64 will be accepted as per WPA-specs.

I vote for removing this private AP feature at all, as once discussed in #143 .

@niccokunzmann I reverted some commits to exclude the AP-feature again.

@SvenRoederer What can I do with the ipk file? I would expect to pull and checkout a git commit to test changes.

[SvenRoederer]

@niccokunzmann hope you have a spare-router, where you can upgrade this ffwizard-package and then start the configuration.

you can for sure compile by yourself, just follow the branch the mentioned commit belongs to.

see PR https://github.com/freifunk-berlin/firmware-packages/pull/107 to remove this code

We removed the private ap code as discussed early.
