Re: [Mesh] Fwd: Sunday Node Mounting

Thanks Yar! So I have some ideas about Sunday, but I haven't really decided on anything yet. Here they are in more or less random order: - Meet at Sudoroom, I show whoever is there how to flash our newest firmware, run makenode and create a mesh node. Depending on time and how many folks show up, we could also set up extender access points or extender node->node radios and perhaps set up a 5ghz extender node link in the omni. I would probably trust these folks to take those mesh nodes home with them as I think the new rule is starting to shape up as: "if you can flash and configure a node yourself, you can take it home and be part of the alpha release". - We try to get on the roof of the omni and build a connection to Will's house. I don't really know much about the roof status, so I'd be hesitant to go this direction unless someone else was there who was comfortable with the roof situation. This would also require us to have the proper mounting materials and figure out the correct mounting technique and locations for the roof. We DO have a nanostation m5 which would be a good match for Will's nanobridge and we could also set up a nanostation m2 which would be an access point broadcasting internet signal to the neighborhood. - Folks come to my house and help me set up an extender node. I have a mynet setup in my house and nanostation m2 which I'd like to broadcast to the neighborhood, but the mounting situation is a tiny bit tricky. Ideally we'd have a ladder as well as some sort of materials/techniques for following my comcast cable line back through the wall out of the house and to the roof (so probably just those wall brackets as well as whatever it takes to get through the wall). If we were feeling particularly ambitious, we could set up an extender node which would face south and *perhaps* be able to see Alex. Just some thoughts. If no one else shows I'll probably just be hacking on some firmware tweaks and/or setting up a mesh service at my house. Also - send an email to the list if you want to show up. I likely won't be at sudoroom unless I know that someone else will be there as well. On Thu, May 14, 2015 at 8:01 PM, yar <yardenack(a)gmail.com> wrote:
