Sad Story of a Fried WRT54g v1
Sad news indeed. I came within a few thousandths of an inch of doing that myself one time. The only thing that saved me was the 2.5mm pin in the jack not fitting into the 2.1mm 12V power supply plug. Whew! My condolences to you...

Topic :
DD-WRT will not update to HSMM firmware
A couple of additional hints: 1) Sometimes, windows is batstuff crazy in the way it handles network interfaces, especially once it's connected and the IP address changes. Sometimes you have to power off of the PC, or at least a reboot is needed. What's particularly infuriating is that it may work right 10 times in a row, and then completely fail the 11th time you try the same thing. 2) Sometimes the WRT-54s get screwy when flashing and you need to unplug the power overnight.

I'm not part of the development team, so take what I say with a grain of salt. I'm also easily confused.

Sad Story of a Fried WRT54g v1
I dug out my old v1 but could not find the power supply. A little research pointed me to a 12v 1a requirement. I found one and plugged it in. Pop sound, silicone sweet out of the SoC and a putrid smell. It's dead.
The really sad part was that I saw on this site, not 5 minutes later that it needed 5v 2a. More sad is that I HAD that power supply the whole time but wrote it off as a mystery because the internet said it needed 12v.
The lesson... I don't know but I'm sad. I was trying to work up a quick demo for a HAM club meet tonight.

Team Speak 3 - VoIP Conferencing
Check your port forwarding on the serving machine. You need to ensure that your remote client is connection via a port that is forwarded on the server.
On another note, using TS3 is brilliant. Thanks for this stroke of inspiration!
[N7FV 2012-06-06- 12:49:56]:
KC7NEC: I followed your instructions and setup a TS3 Server. Got the server up and running. I can login using localhost on the pc with the serve on it. I cannot however connect using another computer connected to the mesh. Could it be a windows7 homegroup issue? Thanks |

Sorry for the late post. What were you using as an antenna? We pointed the 24 db dish in your direction. Dave

Now the mesh is growing. We already have a few nodes in northern Malmö as well as the village of Bara. Next out are a few more nodes in the city of Malmö as well as a few in the vincinity of Ystad. Also nodes in Stockholm area will connect soon.
The first service to be offered will most probably be a DX cluster and more will come.
Now we roll !!! |

Greetings from AF5HH
The map of nodes was very helpful, as I ended up finding KF5GAH in my neighborhood. He loaned me a GL (in addition to my GS). Interesting conversation and great to meet hams face-to-face. I will try my darndest to attend Digital Wednesday this month.

Tunneling and olsr questions
I understand that tunneling is in the works. My question is how does it work? Does the tunneling work via the WAN port and uses olsr to exchange endpoint information? Does olsr work on the wireless side only? Does olsr work on DMZ ip addresses? Is it possible to use external hardware to link hsmm nodes?
Many questions. Any insight would be appreciated.

I got my hands on an unused router over the weekend and thought I'd give HSMM a go. It is all set up, and now I'm looking for an antenna to use it with and a reason to deploy it.
I'm near 360 & 2222 and look forward to trying this out and learning a bunch.

Actually, my situation was for a tftp server installed on the mesh ap. I want that service to stay local to the ap. When I configured a DMZ IP, the tftp port was forwarded to the DMZ host. |

Power Setting
I too would like to increase the power of my WRT54GL slightly to +21 dbm or about 125 mw. I remember reading someone's test results that showed at +21 dbm, the router still produced a clean output signal with no overheating problems.
Is there any way of entering the command line level of the HSMM-Mesh/Linux firmware to read and set the output power of the router? |
