WRT54G-TM MMHC/SDHC Card Support
After a bit of exploration I have determined the instructions in "SDHC Instructions txt.zip" contain an error. Those instructions instruct users to copy the 'sdhc.o' and 'sdhcd.o' files into the '/etc/modules/2.4.34' directory on the WRT54G-TM unit.... when they should have gone into the '/lib/modules/2.4.34'. Once I relocated my files to the correct directory everything worked. I should have figured this out earlier as I had to create the '/etc/modules" and '/etc/modules/2.4.34' directories in order to follow the incorrect instruction, though I was not instructed to create these directories. I hope someone will correct the 'SDHC Instructions txt.zip' file. |

airgrid mhp and NanostationM2 Internet Gateway not working. ..
Thanks for your reply.. I figured out how to use two ports of my wrt54gl as vlan1 and vlan2. It works just fine. I used DD-WRT for this to work.
The router is acting as a smart switch providing internet to the nanostationm2 or airgridm2 setup as internet gateway. In case someone needs to use a spare wrt54gl as a managed switch, here is a simple setup: 1- do a hard reset. 2- go to SETUP-> VLANS
3- move the wan port to vlan 2 4- click apply.(wait 1 minute before continuing).
5- go to SETUP -> Networking page
6- change the "WAN Port Assignment" from "vlan1" to "vlan2". If there is no "vlan2", reboot the router and check again.
7- Press the apply button
8- go to SETUP -> VLANS
9- Move the desired ports from "vlan0" to "vlan1". I used ports 3 and 4 to provide vlans to ubiquiti routers. You can select two or one port to use as vlan, it is up to you. 10- Change Assigned to Bridge settings for vlan1 to LAN
11- Press the apply button and wait one minute before continuing. 12- go to SETUP -> Networking page and verify that the vlan1 interface is assigned to the br0
12- Click save and apply settings.
13- go to setup -> networking page and change "WAN port to Assignment " from "vlan1" to "vlan2" and press apply. 14- go to Administration -> commands and save the following script. nvram set wan_ifname=vlan2 startservice wan Wait two minutes and reboot the router... very important.
15 - go to SETUP -> VLANS 16- Scroll down to "Tagged" and select the ports you selected in step 9 as vlan1. For me I selected ports 3 and 4. 17- Press apply button and wait 2 minutes. After this I was able to assign ports 3 and 4 as vlans and ports 2 and 1 were still working as traditional LAN ports. I also tried the same setup by assigning just port 4 as vlan1 and the 3 other LAN ports were still working just fine. Port 4 provided internet to any Ubiquiti device with one or two LAN ports. Enjoy..
Credits to : DD-WRT tutorial on how to configure VLANS for 802.1q compability. web page: www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Reconfigure_VLANs_for_802.1q_Compability
that is it... now you can plug the nanostation, the bullet or the airgrid lan ethernet cable into port 3 or 4 and it will act as a vlan. Beware !!! I can ping my router ip from different nodes. I can access my router GUI from any node in my network.. I think this is a bit scary if you open your network to everybody in a given community network... Enjoy..

Antenna Question
Thanks for the "Thats what I thought" reply. Being very new to this, I just wasn't sure if it was advisable or not to do it this way. I know there are problems doing this with other applications. But your cleared up my questions. Now I just have to get the antennas up and connected. Not sure how much good it will do, since there are no other nodes near me. But will get them up and see what happens.

What to bring:
-Your own laptop (Mac, Windows, or Linux) and power cord
-1 or more Linksys/Cisco WRT54G version 4 or less (please see the shopping guide on www.hsmm-mesh.org) routers with wall-wort(s), or bring a compatible Ubiquiti router.
-1 cat-5 patch cable
-Optional: power-squid or power strip to make sharing power easier, Windows machines should have a ssh/sftp client like PuTTY installed, bring extra routers to share |

Antenna Question
Rob, You can do this, but it is not really recommended as it will not work well. The splitter will have loss, the coax has loss, and the power will be at least 3dB down to each antenna. The next question is why? Just put the OMNI on one port, the directional antenna on the other port. The OMNI, or near field power will let it connect to the other AP. |

cannot log in now
At last finaly! I was not fallowing the instructions and yes I was. Mistake 1 was that in Windows 7 telnet has to be installed for it to work(DOOP) and the second was that I wall setting my Ip address in the computer but after doing it a couple of times with the flustration of the telnet I instead put 1.1. instead of 1.2. After I got these two things straight it went really well. I now have a working nod. Now to try to get the rest of the group going on this. Thanks 73 John |

Hello Steve, Have you put a "smart switch" (vlan capable) switch connected to the node so you can pull out the WAN port to a physical port to plug into your connection to the internet? Any cable that is plugged into the Ethernet port is treated as part of the "LAN" unless it speaks in 802.1q tagged VLANS to tag traffic as "WAN" port by putting a "VLAN ID" of 1 on the packet. A couple forum posts previously talked on this subject a bit more in depth.

Topic :
Need Few M5 Owners to Run Tests
We just put the UBNT M5 release into beta test. I can't commit to a date on the general release yet, but it should be soon. Hey, we need assistance from owners of the following Ubiquiti M5 (5.7 GHz) devices: - Nano Beam
- Bullet HP Titanium
- Rocket HP Titanium
- PowerBridge
We currently don't have any of these, nor do our regular beta testers. If you do, then you could be a huge help to run a few tests for us to confirm we've accounted for the unique peculiarities of these devices. Please respond to this post if you can help. The testing is straight forward and shouldn't take a lot of time. Thanks and 73, Andre, K6AH

Topic :
Help us gather info on UBNT Devices
UPDATED: 5/9/2014 with current needs
Much of what accounts for the differences between Ubiquiti devices is the way their antenna gain and power level is handled. There is a data sheet in the filesystem of UBNT devices when they are running their factory operating system, AirOS, which identifies key parameters we need to add support for these devices.
The following table describes those that we still need.
M3 Rocket HP Titanium PowerBridge
M5 Rocket HP Titanium
PowerBridge
M9 Nano Station
Nano Bridge
Rocket HP
Rocket HP Titanium
So, if you have any of these devices, we are asking for your help in running the following procedure:
1) It must be running the AirOS.
2) Telnet or Putty into the node (default user is ubnt; password ubnt; default ip 192.168.1.20)
3) Run "cat /etc/board.info"
4) Save the resultant file and post it in response to this forum thread.
As you can see, we are nearing the end of this exercise, so thanks for the tremendous support you have already been. As the final responses come in I'll continue to post periodic updates to this chart.
Thanks and 73,
Andre, K6AH

Hello I just got one brand new airgrid and a brand new NanostationM2. I flashed them with the appropriate firmware but they both have a similar problem The Internet gateway doesn't work. But when I setup a wrt54gl as an internet gateway, the airgrid node and the NanostationM2 node can connect to the Internet via the wrt54gl gateway. . Can you help me with getting the airgrid or the NanostationM2 to work properly as an internet gateway ? Regards Steve

Port Forwarding WAN port 80 to Rpi webserver attached to node
I am trying something similar. In this case it's a TeamSpeak3 server on a PC attached to the LAN port. I have forwarded port 9987: "Both Both 9987 172.27.0.5 9987".
Like AE5CA, I can connect to the server from another node on the mesh, but not via the WAN port. Every other combination of equipment (PC connected directly to my local lan, local client, etc.) works.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Erik, WB0NIU |

Try this...(I just thought of this) Go into failsafe mode (we divert after we type "mount_root") on the "not-quite-bricked" router, and in the /etc/nvram file, change/add a line that reads "config=MESH". Next, copy and paste the contents of the /etc/config.mesh/ folder over to the /etc/config/ folder (overwriting everything). Then, reboot.
If that fails to work, the only other option I can think of is to tftp the firmware back to the router. |

Not quite bricked, but....
[KF5JIM 2014-05-07- 14:33:30]: Have you tried plugging the two nodes together via an Ethernet cable, and either connecting via wireless or a hard Ethernet cable connection to the AP, and navigating to http://172.27.0.2:8080/ ? Yes. Nothing accessible at http://172.27.0.2:8080 or even at http://172.27.0.1:8080. The one that is still configured as a mesh node is accessible at http://10.110.144.121:8080 but 10.110.144.122 is the IP address of the laptop's Ethernet interface when I am connected to that Linksys device. I have discovered that I can in fact get a WiFi connection to the one that is in access point mode, but there doesn't seem to be anything I can do with it. Win7's Network Connection Details shows an Autoconfiguration IPv4 Address of 169.254.95.52 with a Subnet Mask of 255.255.0.0, but arp -a gives me "Interface: 169.254.95.52 --- 0xe Internet Address Physical Address Type 169.254.255.255 ff-ff-ff-ff-ff-ff static 224.0.0.22 01-00-5e-00-00-16 static 224.0.0.251 01-00-5e-00-00-fb static 224.0.0.252 01-00-5e-00-00-fc static 239.255.255.250 01-00-5e-7f-ff-fa static 255.255.255.255 ff-ff-ff-ff-ff-ff static"
IOW, there is no IP address corresponding to the physical (MAC) address of the Linksys device. Another thing: Not only is the one that is in access point mode on Channel 6 rather than on Channel 1, but its SSID is no longer "NV8A-3" as I had named it but "BroadbandHamnet-v1".

Try setting the ip of the computer manually. the old 2 node trick is no longer valid because the AP now gives 10.x address unless you put in NAT mode. |
