Airport emulator...

ShairPort 0.05 released
My girlfriend moved house, and her Airport Express no longer made it with her wireless access point. I figured it'd be easy to find an ApEx emulator - there are several open source apps out there to play to them. However, I was disappointed to find that Apple used a public-key crypto scheme, and there's a private key hiding inside the ApEx. So I took it apart (I still have scars from opening the glued case!), dumped the ROM, and reverse engineered the keys out of it.

Do keep in mind this contains a private key, which Apple might not be too happy about...

as far as i know, this only emulates their airport express wap.

it'll only act as a bridge or a client. no router support here.

cool way to save a bill if you're in the market though.
