== Extender node firmware == | |||
We want to have a fairly simple extender node firmware that we can just flash to any openwrt compatible device and have it be able to be plugged into our routerboard and be a sudomesh radio which will be bridged. That way, the only routing that needs to take place will be on the routerboards. | |||
We've developed [https://github.com/sudomesh/notdhcp notdhcp], which will allow a routerboard and extender node to negotiate a connection/configurations. | |||
One thing is that we'll likely want to target a variety of hardware (if not chipsets), without having to run any sort of makenode after the firmware has been flashed. | |||
A good example of how this could be done is by creating a /file/etc/uci-defaults script which will run first boot and can set configs depending on the "board" type: | |||

:One idea we had (but this is probably better for splash screen) is "adopt a node". Where a neighbor who uses a node a lot and depends on the node can donate some money to keep it up, but can then give a nickname or avatar to the node. Or something.

Status: [[User:Maxb|Maxb]] | Status: [[User:Maxb|Maxb]] implemented a luci-based ui. We decided we hate luci, so we're going to use the ubus uhttpd rpc protocol with a jsonrpc front-end. It's a bit copy-pasta'd from the openwireless router. | ||

We developed this format and easy to publish status data from nodes for our [http://dev.wlan-si.net/wiki/Nodewatcher/NodeTelemetryProvider nodewatcher]. OpenWrt packages are [https://github.com/wlanslovenija/firmware-packages-opkg/tree/master/util here].
