Alexis –
If you need help editing data for more case-study info – we have someone who can help.
Or, if you want to record a case-study and have us transcribe it – we can do that, too.
Other CN People – same goes for all of you. And, if you have the stories in French or
Spanish – no worries – same person deals with all 3 languagues.
This offer is out there until about 15 September so let us know. We know that most of you
running networks need to run them.
Best,
Jane

Community Networks
Hi Alexis, all:
It's a pleasure to see you here. For all of those who are unfamiliar with
Alexis' work, they have been instrumental to bringing the Internet to Vanuatu as well
as promoting telemedicine (read more here).
@Alexis: another resource is our list of resources:

Hello DC3!
Hello, I'm new to the group. My name is Alexis Cullen, and I'm from the USA
originally, but am now living in Vanuatu & have been for the past 4 years (I was a
Peace Corps Volunteer here in a remote village and my husband and I decided to try and
stay in Vanuatu rather than return to the USA after our service, as we love it here)
I've been working for the past three years with Maewo Island and together we've
built a community network (after advocating for connectivity through traditional routes
failed). Some of our information is on this website
mtc.invanuatu.com and facebook page
here:
https://www.facebook.com/MaewoWifi/, but we are in dire need of updating.
I'm writing because I was hoping to find out what people were using for dashboards to
monitor their networks??
I have a friend who codes, and he created a custom solution for us. He's planning to
share it open source on Github. It pulls data from the network through a mikrotik router
& raspberry pi combo. Happy to send our documentation to anyone who is curious.
He started helping because we use Kacific Broadband Satellite for our backhaul and OpenDNS
wouldn't work with their configurations . . .we were trying to get access to our own
data and having a really hard time. Thus the custom script. Now we have data coming back
to us, but no dashboard to interpret the raw data. My friend was going to code this for
us, but he's flat out at the moment, busy with a lot of other projects.
I suppose my question is whether or not we reinvented the wheel with our custom code, and
what others are using to monitor their networks. Is anyone developing any solutions that
they would be willing to share with us? We'd be so grateful!
Thank you!
Alexis
