remove WPA2 password

[Sean]

Hi,

I wanted to temprarily secure my Library box so I added a WPA2 password using"

root@OpenWrt:~# uci set wireless.@wifi-iface[0].encryption=psk2
root@OpenWrt:~# uci set wireless.@wifi-iface[0].key="your_password"
root@OpenWrt:~# uci commit wireless
root@OpenWrt:~# wifi

Now I want it back to an open system but can't seem to get it to work despite googling for the answer. Any help would be appreciated.Thanks.

[Sean]

Update: I was able to do it by editing to /etc/var/wireless and commenting out :

option encryption 'psk2'
option key

and then restarting wireless. Is there another way to do it? I want to learn as much as possible. Thank you.

Hi Sean,

the command for disabling encryption is:

root@OpenWrt:~# uci set wireless.@wifi-iface[0].encryption=none
root@OpenWrt:~# uci commit wireless
root@OpenWrt:~# wifi

best regards

Matthias

Thank you Matthias! What is the best resource to learn the OpenWRT command line and ash besides the OpenWRT website? I love breaking stuff!

Hi,

review existing sourcecode and the openwrt wiki are the best ressources. Especially existing scripts can be very helpful.

best regards Matthias
