[lime-users] Adding third SSID via lime-config

by Julius Berger

Hi there, thanks for libremesh! My goal is to add another client wifi network. The two from the 'standard' configuration are running and the mesh on 5 ghz also, but if i try to add a third one, running lime-config gives me an error. In my etc/config/lime besides the other config options: config wifi 'radio1' list modes 'ieee80211s' option htmode_5ghz 'HT40' option ieee80211s_encryption 'psk2/aes' option ieee80211s_key 'password' option ieee80211s_mesh_id 'LiMe' option ieee80211s_mesh_fwding '0' option channel_5ghz '48' option distance '100' config wifi 'radio0' list modes 'ap' list modes 'apname' option apname_ssid 'LibreMesh.org/%H' option apname_key 'mypassword' option apname_encryption 'psk2' option ap_ssid 'IoT' option ap_key 'mypassword' option ap_encryption 'psk2' option channel_2ghz '1' option distance '100' That is working. If i add another block in radio0 like this: list modes 'ap2name' option ap_ssid 'thirdSSID' option ap_key 'mypassword' option ap_encryption 'psk2' I'am getting an error on the command line: /usr/lib/lua/lime/wireless.lua:117: module 'lime.mode.ap2name' not found: ... Does some of you has an example of adding more SSID's via the "lime-config-system" for me? Regards Julius

[lime-users] DSL modem - router compatible with LibreMesh

by Patricio Gibbs

I see DSL modem-router combo devices on OpenWrt... Any experience using them with LibreMesh? Are all the necessary config options accessible, either though GUI or CLI? The public ISP here has just informed is that after all it may be impossible for them to sell us a fiber optic connection in the town we have line of sight to, so we're looking for ways to improve our DSL quickly whole we figure out our longer-term strategy. ~ Pato

[lime-users] modifying a router to add antenna

by Patricio Gibbs

Has anyone modified a router that had non-removable antennas to add an attachment for a removable antenna? I imagine it would require: - acquire male RP-SMA connector. - open the router, cut a hole somewhere in the casing, and mount the male RP-SMA connector there. - disconnect the wire of a stock antenna and put a wire from that part of the board to the RP-SMA male. - close the router. Doing this, the router keeps its stock antenna(s), but one of them is disconnected. I guess there's a question about how much power the radio puts out, to know what sort of antenna will work... I don't yet know much about those calculations. ~ P

[lime-users] lime on wrt54g?

by bruno vianna

hello This list a bit quiet, so here is a question for the experts: how difficult it is to port libremesh to the wrt54g? I see there is a openwrt version, but no libremesh. The chipset is not in the target list. Boa Vista de Acará network, near Belem in northern Brazil, got 10 of these routers from FreiFunk. I understand they used to run Tomato firmware in them. Thanks!

[lime-users] Failure of security in community networks in Brazil

by Hiure Queiroz

Hello World! My name is Hiure, I am a member of coolab ( coolab.org). This is the first time I write to this list , I am a beginner on administrate networks and configure equipments. By initiative from COOLAB we are starting a few community networks around Brazil. One of them is where I live , in a rural community in the city of Monteiro Lobato, State of São Paulo. Here we start since the creation of a association to formalize the communitary network and create a model to guide on the other COOLAB installations. We arre using the last version of libremesh , cooking it in the cooker. As we still in a test phase we have only six nodes , the gateway is a tplink wdr3500. With a captive portal, we are running this adapt version to nodogsplash (http://wiki.coolab.org/index.). This system is fundamental to keep the network sustainable, without it we can not finance the connection and technical support for the network. The problem is, in the last months some people found a way to hack this system. What I understood so far: There is a cellphone app that create tunnels for diferent ports and instead of swap packages DNS it tunell all the packages by there. I know just a few things about how firewall, iptables, ebtables, etc, i have been studying it in the last months , but it seens much more complicated because it look that in libremesh, with so many interfaces, its get hard to understand and to execute a rule that can solve this problem. If someone can help me with some tips on t do it , or sending some material where I can study to understand better this questions, it would be great bests Hiure
