OpenWRT on the NanoStation 2 : Part 2

On Thursday I posted the first part of installing OpenWRT on a Ubiquiti NanoStation 2. Now I will be showing how to configure the unit with a Master and adhoc VAP With OLSRD running on the adhoc VAP. I found it was easier to configure the NS2 via the CLI than the Web Interface, but that is my preference.
