Want to learn about how mesh networks can support our emergency communications work? Need help getting started with HSMM-Mesh (http://www.broadband-hamnet.org/)? Want to find out if that old WRT54G router can be reborn as a High Speed MultiMedia (hsmm-mesh) network #emcomm node? Do you want to try out that Ubiquiti (http://www.ubnt.com) router? Only have one node and no one to mesh with? :(
