Thanks for the replies! Yes, I did not enable the DHCP server
because I thought I could physically assigned an IP to the laptop.
As suggested, I enabled the DHCP server (udhcpd). My laptop could
link up with the WAP but had problem getting an IP. Do I need to
assign a DNS address in the udhcpd.config file?
My udhcpd.config file:
# The start and end of the IP lease block
start 192.168.1.20 #default: 192.168.0.20
end 192.168.1.254 #default: 192.168.0.254
# The interface that udhcpd will use
interface wlan0 #default: eth0
# The maximim number of leases (includes addressesd reserved
# by OFFER's, DECLINE's, and ARP conficts
max_leases 234 #default: 254
# If remaining is true (default), udhcpd will store the time
# remaining for each lease in the udhcpd leases file. This is
# for embedded systems that cannot keep time between reboots.
# If you set remaining to no, the absolute time that the lease
# expires at will be stored in the dhcpd.leases file.
#remaining yes #default: yes
# The time period at which udhcpd will write out a dhcpd.leases
# file. If this is 0, udhcpd will never automatically write a
# lease file. (specified in seconds)
#auto_time 7200 #default: 7200 (2 hours)
# The amount of time that an IP will be reserved (leased) for if a
# DHCP decline message is received (seconds).
#decline_time 3600 #default: 3600 (1 hour)
# The amount of time that an IP will be reserved (leased) for if an
# ARP conflct occurs. (seconds
#conflict_time 3600 #default: 3600 (1 hour)
# How long an offered address is reserved (leased) in seconds
#offer_time 60 #default: 60 (1 minute)
# If a lease to be given is below this value, the full lease time is
# instead used (seconds).
#min_lease 60 #defult: 60
# The location of the leases file
lease_file /var/lib/misc/udhcpd.leases
# The location of the pid file
pidfile /var/run/udhcpd.pid #default: /var/run/udhcpd.pid
notify_file dumpleases
# The following are bootp specific options, setable by udhcpd.
#siaddr 192.168.0.22 #default: 0.0.0.0
#sname zorak #default: (none)
#boot_file /var/nfs_root #default: (none)
# The remainer of options are DHCP options and can be specifed with
the
# keyword 'opt' or 'option'. If an option can take multiple items,
such
# as the dns option, they can be listed on the same line, or multiple
# lines. The only option with a default is 'lease'.
# opt dns
opt subnet 255.255.255.0
# opt router 192.168.10.2
# opt wins 192.168.10.10
option domain local
option lease 864000 # 10 days of seconds
Thanks,
Han
