We're going to write on the web a list of tested routers, just for
helping the visitors to have an idea of the supported/recommended
routers without copying and pasting the whole list provided by
OpenWrt/LEDE.
The discussion on this is here:
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-web/pull/14
Please answer with the routers you tried with LibreMesh.
I played with:
TP-Link WDR3600
TP-Link WR1043ND-v1
Ubiquiti NanoBridge M5
Ubiquiti NanoStation M5 XM
Ubiquiti NanoStation LoCo M2
There's a group currently testing in Brasil how does LibreMesh run on
these ath9k+ath10k routers.
ath9k = 2.4ghz
ath10k = 5ghz
Extra packets needed so far:
kmod-ath10k
ath10k-firmware-qca988x
Progress so far: adhoc doesn't seem to work (virtual interface is not
created) on the ath10k interface. The 2.4ghz interface works correctly
(it's ath9k)
Currently trying ieee80211s mode on ath10k.
Will report any news
If anyone has already tested this hardware or has any tips, much welcome :)
cheers!

Maybe this happened because of an error in targets of lime-build, I
think this should fix:
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-build/pull/16
Surprisingly I can't compile anyway, the compilation fails like this:
$ make T=mt7620 J=1 V=s UPDATE=1
[...]

A workaround is to specify the target device (Zbtlink ZBT-APE522II) in
menuconfig under the "Target Profile" menu.
$ make T=mt7620 menuconfig
and then launch the compilation again.
Hi,
Following
http://nuvem.tk/wiki/index.php/Fuma%C3%A7a_Data_Springs/Anexo_t%C3%A9cnico#…
with
https://translate.google.fr/translate?hl=fr&sl=pt&tl=fr&u=http%3A%2F%2Fnuve…
in parallel ;)
I get nodogsplash running on my Internet connected node. And use vale
for distributing connexion coupons. GREAT!!
For now, only one node is Internet connected. But what if many nodes
are? It seems I should install nodogsplash and vale on everyone.
Then I will need to share and synchronise vouchers and configuration
files accross all!?
This my install procedure.
opkg install nodogsplash (helps install dependencies)
opkg install
http://chef.altermundi.net/downloads/r44952/ar71xx/packages/routing/nodogsp…
opkg install
http://chef.altermundi.net/downloads/r44952/ar71xx/packages/lime_packages/v…
root@LiMe-8de281:~# opkg files vale
Package vale (2015-09-09-1441772353) is installed on root and has the
following files:
/www/nds/iframeResizer.min.js
/www/nds/splash.css
/www/nds/iframeResizer.contentWindow.min.js
/www/cgi-bin/vale
/etc/nodogsplash/vale/db.csv
/usr/bin/vale.sh
/etc/nodogsplash/htdocs/splash-vale.html
root@LiMe-8de281:~# opkg files nodogsplash
Package nodogsplash (0.9_beta9.9.9-2-20150718_043129) is installed on
root and has the following files:
/usr/bin/nodogsplash
/usr/bin/ndsctl
/etc/nodogsplash/nodogsplash.conf
/etc/init.d/nodogsplash
/etc/nodogsplash/htdocs/splash.html
/etc/nodogsplash/htdocs/images/splash.jpg
/etc/nodogsplash/htdocs/infoskel.html
I translated and adapted into french
/etc/nodogsplash/htdocs/splash.html
/www/cgi-bin/vale
and provide voucher codes in /etc/nodogsplash/vale/db.csv
I am thinking in using rsync (or syncthing) from a reference node to
update files.
I am writing to the group to find people interested in that project ;) -
What exact files should be sync?
- Could we extend packages into multilanguage?
- Is there a better way to do access control on libremesh?
Happy end of last world
See you tomorrow ;)

Good meshing,
We would like to have a captive portal in our LiMe network. We have
never played with those things. I think the one to use here is
Nodogsplash.
My question is: Is there any information I should have to make
Nodogsplash work on Lime?
Sorry to ask before even trying, but when reading about Nodogsplash I
saw things on firewalls and iptables that made me wondered if Lime
will work like a plain OpenWRT.
Thanks!

Hi,
I noticed that if I add DNS to DHCP lan server [[HELP: Define additional
DHCP options, for example "6,192.168.2.1,192.168.2.2" which advertises
different DNS servers to clients.]], then wifi connection is impossible...
My node is a BulletM2 and eth0 is configured as WAN.
In that case, WAN dhcp client DNS is used for LAN resolution relay.
Is my case specific to my device?
How does DNS options are transmitted to mesh clients?
Today that first node is installed in front of my house providing free
wifi to neighbors ;) Next step will be to install a "nodogsplash" web
site to invite neighbors to participate with me...
I am wondering how could I calculate customer charge to help paying for
Internet nodes volunteers? Anyone reach that step already?
ONE LOVE

Subject: [Battlemesh] new tests this year?
To: Battle of the Mesh Mailing List <battlemesh(a)ml.ninux.org>
# Aircaps
I would really like big "sniffer" station or three deployed to look
at behaviors in the air.
# Bigger route tables
When I observed wlan-slovenia sending 14 packets of route update due
to the size of their mesh, it occurred to me that one thing we have
not been testing
is what happens when you have that many routes.
It would be fairly straightforward to equip the wibed testbed (or
another one) with a route table say 2x the size of wlan-slovenia, or
guifi, to observe what really happens as devices come and go (setting
up same in ns3 might be interesting as well)
# 802.11s
With eero and google both shipping 802.11s solutions - this is the
year of "mesh" - but not a lot is known about how they actually work.
Setting up an 802.11s network would be good to add... (or at least
invite someone from these places to talk about it)
# AP mode
adhoc is dying, what can be done with a mixture of adhoc and AP mode?
What does powersave due to meshy protocols?
# IoT interop
802.14 + X?
Another thought is sprinkle devices like the chip or pi3 around as
test targets, as well as laptops, etc....
# Mobility
*somebody's* gotta have a drone or robot we could fly around the place
on a set course with a couple extra wifi antennas attached.....
# Distributed address assignment
the homenet protocol (hnetd/hncpd) has yet to have a large scale test against it
# 802.11ad?

Subject: Radio Lockdown: Community WiFis unite!
To:
Dear all,
My name is Sebastian, I work as an assistant to MEP Julia Reda (Pirate
Party, Greens/EFA) in the European Parliament. I am reaching out to
you today on the topic of the Radio Equipment Directive (2014/53/EU;
RED) that you might have heard of as “Radio Lockdown” because of a
provision obliging manufacturers of radio equipment (such as WiFi
routers) to check all software installable on their devices [1-3].
We think this is a danger to Community WiFi projects throughout
Europe, as they, among others, rely on midified (Free Software)
firmware installed on routers.
The good news is that the RED has not entered into force yet because
the Commission needs to define equipment classes first. This is at the
same time our best possible course of action: We think there should be
a separate class for equipment that you rely on in your projects.
In order to push for this, I would like you to join a working group
that has already been formed in the European Commission. Stakeholders
can join this working group. However, only European-level
organisations will be allowed to join.
That is why I am reaching out to you: I would like you to form a
European representation of Community WiFis to join the working group
and push for an exception for your projects.
As we know that setting up European representation on short notice is
not an easy task, I asked Kirsten Fiedler (in Cc) if it would be
possible for you to team up with EDRi. Even though permanent members
will have to apply and be accepted by the EDRi general assembly [4], a
temporary observership would be an option.
It would be great if you could talk to your projects, and also please
forward this email to everyone else you think should be in the loop!
I’m not sure who of you already know each other, so maybe you can send
a short introduction of who you are and what your project does.
In case you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me by
email, phone (I can call you back!), and if you’re there, let us meet
up on the upcoming Chaos Communication Congress in Hamburg.
Kind regards,
Sebastian

Subject: Re: Radio Lockdown: Community WiFis unite!
To:
Dear all,
thank you for all your replies. Let me quickly give you an update, that
should already answer some of the immediate questions. I will then
propose to form a European representation further down.
# Call for participation in expert group, deadline 15/January
The Commission has launched the public call for application to the
expert group
<http://ec.europa.eu/transparency/regexpert/index.cfm?do=calls.calls_for_app>
(search for Radio).
The deadline for applications is 15/January. I reached out to EDRi, CCC,
FSFE, and FFN, as well as other stakeholder groups (such as
academics/research, ISPs).
I just spoke with Christian Heise (also from the board of FFN e.V. from
Germany, welcome to the list) and he will reach out to Kirsten in order
to clarify if and how an application to the experts group can still work
within the timeframe until 15/Jan.
I suggest FSFE and EDRi/you apply independently as I suppose they
represent sufficiently separate stakeholders groups.
The members of the expert group are appointed by a political board, so
the next point is kind of fyi, but please let me know if you think it
worth pursuing it:
Other than European organizations, "individuals appointed in a personal
capacity" or "individuals representing a common interest" can be
appointed to the expert group (see page 2 of the form attached, it is
the PDF version with some highlights of
<http://ec.europa.eu/transparency/regexpert/index.cfm?do=news.open_doc&id=25…>).
I think chances to go this way are slim, and we may risk cannibalizing
the applications of the representations. But please let me know if you
disagree!
# How to get engaged - Community WiFis unite!
Here's what you can immediately do to get engaged:
* Blog or publish in any other form about your projects and how they
are affected by the firmware lockdown. (When you did, please send me
your links!)
* If EDRi/FSFE or others manage to be appointed to the expert group,
they will *need your input and support on documents and meetings to
prepare*!
* If someone has the capacity to set up *a mailing list* we can
replace this list with, I would appreciate that. (But please don't just
subscribe everyone without asking! :)
* I guess it would be great if as many as possible among you that
already have formed representations on their national level, join EDRi,
or anything else if there is another European representation that suits
your needs better.
* If you haven't already, and if you have the capacity, form national
representations, or help form an own European entity. Both take a long
time, now is a good time to get started!
As always, please let me know if you have questions, if you'd like to
set up a phone call, I can gladly call you – anything.
Best,
Sebastian

Hi,
I have 2 BULLET 2HP to join my Mesh.
I could install LiMe (chef cooked firmware) on my M2, but it missing
memory for being available on 2HP..
Anyone knows if I could try another qMp or OpenWRT? Could it be
compatible with LiMe mesh? Otherwise I could use them as mesh end AP...
Thanks
Fred
