<p><b>New page</b></p><div>=Attendees=<br />
* Max, Dan (working on raspi or beaglebone meshing - trouble with batman), Jeremy, Deekoo brought beer!, John, Ryan (has worked with dd-wrt before, is connected at home with sonic.net, his first meeting), Marc, Eric (has a bit of experience with open-wrt, interested in donating bandwidth), Mike (does large scale IT for a living, is curious)<br />
<br />
=Updates=<br />
* Dan found portal that he likes - from Tunisia mesh: <br />
* Deekoo did "burn in test" on nodes and it ran ok for a few days<br />
* Dan is maybe having trouble with internet connectivity through node - he's interested in <br />
* John is interested in building local apps<br />
* Jeremey wants to know about trouble Dan had building sudowrt?<br />

=General Questions from new Folks=<br />
* Ryan has a question:<br />
- What kind of hardware does sudomesh recommend?<br />
- Deekoo suggests newbies looking to contribute hardware start with 5GHz gear<br />
- 5GHz works great for point-to-point but not well for multipoint. Recommending folks use 5GHz for p-p then bridge with 2.4 for mulitpoint access.<br />
* Eric asks, "What's the cheese machine?" cheese.local from the sudoroom AP<br />
<br />
=Documentation=<br />
* Marc put together a firmware todo: https://sudoroom.org/wiki/Mesh/Firmware<br />
<br />
=Technical=<br />
* Dan is interested in debugging node at home<br />
* Firmware<br />
** Get hardware watchdog for picostations and ar71xx<br />
** Node monitoring (alex?)<br />
** Add trigger for listening to ethernet being plugged in and unplugged<br />
** Implement password reset<br />
** Error reporting in web admin interface<br />
** Find co-location facility with good bandwidth deal and hopefully locally. <br />
** Deal with situations where home network is 10.* (currently mesh address)<br />
** Have a test for internet to switch batman gateway settings<br />
<br />
* 10.? problem/* Splash page */ <br />
** Mesh needs one subnet for everyone. Currently on 10. which interferes with some home networks<br />
** Maybe local networks are only using a certain smaller subset<br />
** Research unused military subnet?<br />
** Ipv6?<br />
<br />
=Outreach=<br />
* You can donate to us at https://www.gittip.com/sudomesh/ !!<br />
* We want lots of tiny donations!<br />
<br />
=Operations=<br />
* We might piggyback on Slovenian group who is using lasers for long range optical connections</div>Tunabananas
