We | We're going to target ar71xx devices with decent storage + processing speed + memory for "router board" nodes. | ||
Right now we're using for "router board" nodes: | |||
WD MyNet N750 and/or TP-Link TL-WDR4300 | |||
The MyNets are no longer in production, but the TL-WDR4300 are the exact same board, just with external antennas. | |||
Then we can use "extender nodes" which can basically just do wifi and bridging. This would be basically any router which supports openwrt. We'll probably begin by targeting a variety of ubiquiti long-distance high power radios (Nanostation M line, Bullet M line, Picostation M line, Nanobridge/beam/etc). | |||
Really the extender nodes are just doing dumb bridging. The only reason we want them to run openwrt is so that they can do some fancier address assignment with [https://github.com/sudomesh/notdhcp notdhcp] and have some nice UI features. We could actually setup something like 2 ends of an airfiber and just configure them the way we want (wouldn't need the dynamic features of notdhcp). |
