Battlemesh travel scholarships available

by Mitar

Hi! (Please spread the word to those you think might be interested in the scholarship.) We are opening a call for sponsored travel to attend Battlemesh for anyone living outside Europe and would like to invite you to send your application! Battlemesh is the annual conference/gathering/hack event on community wireless networks and routing protocols will be between 3rd-9th August in Maribor, Slovenia. As Battlemesh is in the week before the Chaos Communication Camp in Germany, this is an excellent opportunity to be able to travel to both. https://wlan-si.net/en/blog/2015/06/22/battlemesh-travel-scholarships-avail… Event is free to attend and we still have organized accommodation available at low cost. Requirements ------------ Travel scholarships are open to people not living in Europe. To apply, we would like to ask you to send a short video (not longer than two minutes) to describe your situation: - Where are you from? - Why would you like to attend Battlemesh? - What impact in your local environment do you expect from your participation? - Would you be able to attend without the travel scholarship? - Will you continue to the Chaos Communication Camp? (Note that it is not a problem if you also plan to go to the CC camp.) Shoot a short video and upload it to one of the video sharing websites and send us a link. Note that if it is private, we need a direct link and/or password for it as well. Contact ------- E-mail your video to the local Battlemesh team at <battlemeshv8(a)wlan-si.net>. Deadline -------- The deadline for applications is the 3rd of July. Decisions will be made before 6th July. What is Battlemesh? ------------------- The Wireless Battle of the Mesh is an event that aims at bringing together people from across Europe and beyond to test the performance of different routing protocols for mesh networks, like Babel, B.A.T.M.A.N., BMX, IEEE 802.11s, OLSR. It is a tournament with a social character. If you are a mesh networking enthusiast, community networking activist, or have an interest in mesh networks and related technologies, come and attend. The traditional goal of the event is to set-up hands-on testbed for each available mesh routing protocol with a standard test procedure for the different mesh networks. During the event, similar hardware and software configuration will be used based on the OpenWrt and packages for each protocol implementation. The event is also a great opportunity to develop testing tools for PHY/MAC radio layers (drivers, scripts and PHY analyzers). Alongside the testing of routing protocols, a number of talks, workshops, and hackathons will be held on various mesh-related topics, all from technology to community and social aspects of mesh networks. This years Battlemesh will take place from 3rd to 9th August 2015 in Maribor, Slovenia. Mitar -- http://mitar.tnode.com/ https://twitter.com/mitar_m

Okay, cool, we will come on Tuesday. Mike and I talked about meeting there the earlies possible, he mentioned even 4pm would work for him. But, I have to confirm the time to him on Tuesday, since I don't know how early I can leave from work that day. I will try to message the list, so you know.

Re: [Mesh] Fun, installing mesh

by Tom

Hi Sudo meshers, I had a great time helping install the Ethernet with you and wanted to thank everyone for such a fun day today. I learned a lot I didn't know, and I'm always gratefull for to learn from those opportunities. I really appreciated the chance to follow the installation with you, and learning the openwrt flashing and soldering the tp-link boards, really expanded my technological horizons. Special thanks to Max and Mark for showing me the ins and outs of cabling/routers/re-configuring wrt power supplies, etc.! Thanks to Benny and Daniel for such a great dinner! And thanks to everybody for being such great company during 10+ hours of installation! I look forward to seeing you all again soon!

Ad-hoc mode and cjdns

by Cobin Bluth

Hi All, I live in portland OR, and I am just recently getting interested in wireless meshnets. My current setup is two nodes, Raspberry Pi 2 Hardware, one with a tp-link TL-WN722N, and the other with some sort of "panda wireless-n" adapter. My problem is that I am getting around 30% dropped packets, and they are about a foot apart, which makes me wonder if using a ad-hoc is a good idea or not... I have them both running Ubuntu 14.04 <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RaspberryPi> and the most recent version of cjdns. My network configs are below: root@ubuntu:~# cat /etc/network/interfaces # interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8) # Include files from /etc/network/interfaces.d: source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback # The primary network interface auto eth0 allow-hotplug eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp auto wlan0 allow-hotplug wlan0 iface wlan0 inet manual wireless-channel 8 wireless-essid NeighborMesh wireless-mode ad-hoc So then I decided to just remove the wireless usb adapters, and run cjdns over the eth0 interfaces, but I am still getting a consistent ~12% packet drop with that: --- fcfe:307d:38e5:5aa4:9bfc:a4ce:dd3d:969c ping statistics --- 76 packets transmitted, 67 received, 11% packet loss, time 75156ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 2.378/26.382/196.791/51.318 ms Pinging the IPv4 address outside of cjdns works great, always: --- 192.168.0.226 ping statistics --- 24 packets transmitted, 24 received, 0% packet loss, time 23002ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.640/0.675/0.783/0.036 ms What am I doing wrong? I *would* like to achieve standalone/independent wireless mesh nodes that dont need a master access point to function. (I am imagining giving one to my geek neighbor, and seeing if we can start a mini mesh network) Does anyone have any suggestions? -Cobin

by danarauz＠gmail.com

I know the subject line is like.. woot!?? :) But seriously... :) I am looking for someone to hold my hand and walk me through (help me with) a couple of small projects. Here is what I wish to accomplish: 1- to get a router with OpenWRT (Not sure of its capabilities, but I like the idea to get ride of the corporate code, because potential backdoors) 2- and if needed, a tiny computer that would be always connected to a VPN account, so that all home computers can use it as their gateway; IF the router cannot do this. What can I give in exchange? Well, I don't know what knowledge I can share when all of you seem to be way above my head. I don't know, maybe Photography? Spanish? :) Please let me know if interested, we can start right away. I am eager to start this.

Late, but coming eventually!

by max b

Hey so I'm super late, but I am definitely coming (I got sucked into watching a basketball game!) I did call these folks today: http://www.hamradio.com/locations.cfm?storeid=3 I asked about non-penetrating mounts and they mentioned that they have "tripods". I know that's not really what we were thinking about, but I think it'll be worth it for me to swing by tomorrow and take a look. I'll drive, so if anyone else is interested in swinging by, let me know. Probably around 2:30 or so... On other notes: - What are people's thoughts about new payment processing solutions? We've gotten some notices from gratipay that they've fixed their issues, but that we'll have to re-apply as a "team". We *could* roll our own stripe system, but in my experience using stripe to charge credit cards is easy, but properly managing recurring payments is not that easy. I personally would prefer to continue to allow a third-party to do that work. Does anyone know what sudoroom is doing? - The sudomesh.org server (and peoplesopen.net and all the other stuff) is slowly being brought back to life. I believe that @sudomesh.org (and @ peoplesopen.net) email addresses are currently down, so it might make sense for us to fix that first before we apply at gratipay again. I have purchased a digital ocean VPS, so the next step is to finish setting it up and then coordinate with marc on DNS settings. - Node mounting this sunday? Of course, if we get the non-penetrating mount, we can set up a link between Will and the Omni. Even if we don't get the non-penetrating mount, there's plenty to be done. We need to run cable (not a simple feat to do correctly), configure a mesh node tp-link or mynet, configure extender node antennas, and create a link between them (we can just do it by holding up a radio on the omni side by hand). Who would be around to do some of this? Will is on this list, but I might get in touch with him off-list anyhow to see if he'll be around and would be interested.

A survey of community network management solutions

by Mitar

Hi! Please help us fill in the spreadsheet of community network management solutions out there. We filled in those we know about, but even those only partially. So if in your network you are using some solutions for network management, please fill it in: https://goo.gl/JbD4VC As we are working on nodewatcher v3 we are trying to keep up with developments of others. We will also use this data in the paper we are writing about managing community networks. Feel free to use the data as well. If you strongly feel that some column is missing, add it, but remember that it has to be filled for all rows to be really useful. Spreadsheet is CC0.
