It's 5 am and I'm just about to sleep
I've been tweaking sudowrt-firmware and makenode and I now have a working
setup with a tp-link wdr3500 running the home node firmware and a bullet m2
running the extender node firmware that are talking to each other with
notdhcp correctly without any manual configration after flashing.
I took the liberty of adding max's ssh pub key (same one as
sudoroom.org)
to the extender node firmware since there's really no other way to get into
it during development. Alex feel free to add your own as well.
The home nodes have a "for development only" IP of 172.22.0.1 and the
extender nodes have 172.22.0.2
SO! Just some notdhcp hook script wrangling left and then I'll get the new
web gui finalized enough that it can replace the luci gui, and maybe
someone can package it into sudowrt-packages? Then that's it! Ready to go
for a usable 0.2.
Oh btw, I was wondering how we should parcel up the eternet port. Here's
one option:
Port 0: The mesh
Port 1: The private network
Port 2: An extender node
Port 3: An extender node
Or we could do port 0 and 1 on the mesh both? Whaddaya think? We can make
them dymanically switchable from the web gui in next version.
