Using Linux / hostapd, will this work as an access point?

Yeah... ish. I have it in my router right now and it works great in the 2.4ghz band. Im working on getting the 5ghz band up and running but I seem to be running into country code problems or it might be possible that this card doesn't support AP mode in 5Ghz mode but Im hoping for the former :) kernel 3.13.EDIT. Talked to a intel kernel dev. 5ghz is disabled for regulatory reasons.

Yes, I have configured this network card to run using hostapd, the configuration is a breeze. In order to utilize the 5 ghz you must ensure you install the most recent driver. I had to manually install the most revent iwlwifi driver. The setup I have configured is using hostapd and dnsmasq.

It has a port forwarding configuration, but I haven't been able to get it to work. I haven't tried all that hard, though.

This should work - instructions are available here: http://wiki.hidemyass.com/DD-WRT_OpenVPN_Setup_No.2

Sure if you want to. http://www.practicallynetworked.com/networking/convert_wifi_router_to_access_point.htm

yes it will work as an access point ..but for phones or laptops to connect you need to disable airmax

It's not going to work as access point but TP link has another small unit which has access point capability , signal enhancer and router all in one and cost wise is heap also and I am using that perfectly

No this is a firewall and VPN device. You would need to add an access point for WIFI.

yes, it is easy to map as a network drive. I have mapped it to both Windows 7 and 8, as well as Linux

You're looking for an access point. Out of the box this NIC (network interface card) was not meant to be an access point. That being said you could most likely turn your desktop into an access point broadcasting out of this NIC - do some searching / reading on turning your desktop into an access point. good luck

This is an access point only. It does not route or NAT. It needs to be behind a router/firewall of some kind. It only bridges wifi devices to an existing network.

That probably won't be possible because each device hooked up to the adapter will be fighting for an IP address. Each device needs an adapter, you're going to need a device called an access point to do what you're asking.

I'm not sure "the repeater" mean "access point". Anyway It could use for AP as well!

I see others have answered this - yes, you can use it as an access point or repeater. You can even set it up to bridge two WLANs.

You can use it as a client or access point. It can be set as a repeater via was. But that will only work with the m5 line of ubiquity equipment.

Yes. You have to setup web-DAV and some other things, and then it work like a dream. There are plenty of how to's on the internet and synology.com.

U guess u can. I used 1 as access point and it worked. I believe cloud feature doesn't work if u use it as access

Looking at the documentation, it does support PPPoE and the GUI looks decent. As for supporting a 255.255.0.0 subnet, it looks like it will but I have never tried it. http://dl.ubnt.com/guides/AirRouter/AirRouter_User_Guide.pdf
