peoplesopen.net is now available in sudo room, meaning that the peoplesopen.net wifi in sudo room is connected to the rest of the mesh. Daniel and myself took advantage of this to remote-reconfigure his home node to change which ethernet ports are used for which network.

Started documenting the Omni wifi network as we finish configuring the last routers:

 https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/OmniWifi

Will came by and we crimped an outdoor ethernet cable for his extender node that he is mounting at his new location close to Omni.

Realized that we don't have anymore shielded EZ-RJ45 plugs for CAT6 and trying to fit the thicker copper through CAT5 plugs is a pain. Ordered CAT6 version.

Talked about renaming the peoplesopen.net ssid for 5 GHz to peoplesopen.net-5ghz since some operating systems seem to prefer 2.4 and e.g. network-manager's UI seems to not have any way to connect to the 5 Ghz peoplesopen.net at all! Getting more clients on 5 GHz might be good or bad. Made the switch for Omni at least since those routers are all hard-wired.

Talked about setting up a GSM network at Omni using the new donated SDR gear.
