Hello, I write to ask in the list that brand and references of equipment designed to work outdoors can recommend me different from the brand Ubiquiti because for a couple of months we have been having trouble changing the firmware to this brand computers that are supposedly compatible but come with a new firmware version and do not allow the installation of libreMesh. I hope you can give us more information about it. Thank you. Fernando Castro T

[lime-users] Archer C50 adventures

by bruno vianna

Hello meshies I know everybody is having fun at Battle Mesh, but if someone could take a look at this I' d really appreciate. I really have my eyes on the C50, as it seems to be the cheapest dual-band on the market now. I can get on in Brazil for less than 40 USD! Last week I bought one which I later found out to be an unsupported V2. But now I got a V1, and it almost works. If it works, I'll the buy about 10 for an installation in two weeks. The problem seems to be with 802.11. The 2.4Ghz radio does not work in ad-hoc mode - although the 5Ghz radio does. Then I don't know if it's related, but when it meshes with a WDR3500, the Internet is painfully slow, with some ping times about 1000-2000 milliseconds. Pinging from the LiMe gateway at the same time gives me a steady 57ms. Perhaps a different driver should be used? Attached is a file with information gathered from the router. A few other oddities (not as important as the issue above): - Could not flash from stock directly with the compiled LiMe. I had to first use this openwrt [1], then LiMe - When I flash from the firmware above with the LiMe I compiled or the download Lede, I get the message: " It appears that you try to flash an image that does not fit into the flash memory, please verify the image file! Size: 7.63 MB (7.62 MB available)" It works fine, tough. - The firmware I cooked with my community settings (using cooker) won't go through to the Internet, and gives this ESSID instead of my community's:{{NETWORK_NAME}} (although it meshes with the LiMe gateway) - The firmware I cooked without community settings connects to the Internet through the LiMe gateway with the sluggish times above. Thanks! [1] http://dl.eko.one.pl/luci/chaos_calmer/ramips/luci-15.05-ramips-mt7620-Arch… -- bruno(a)pobox.com ▀─█▄██▄▀▄ http://brunovianna.net ─█▄██▄▀█▀█▄ skype: randomico▀─█▄██▄▀█▀█▄▌██─█▌█▌

[lime-users] current LibreMesh recommendation?

by Patricio Gibbs

I just got a TP-Link WDR3500. What's the newest stable LibreMesh that I can put on it, and how do I get it or make it? I have some 17.06 firmware I could use, but I want to know if there's anything newer.

[lime-users] LibreMesh 17.06 direcciones LAN funcionan en Firefox pero no Chromium

by Patricio Gibbs

In our network, when I'm at Maria's node and I want to administer Cecilia's node, I can type cecilia.lan into Firefox and it works fine. It doesn't work in Chrome/Chromium. LiMe 17.06 Dayboot Rely (17.06 rev. ac18095 20180512_2043) / LuCI lede-17.01 branch (git-18.098.72829-575e327) kernel 4.4.92 If this is fixed in newer versions, great. If not, how could we fix it?

[lime-users] How does the network content is addressed in a mesh network?

by pmauro＠posteo.net

Hi people! I'm really excited to say that I'm using LibreMesh after a long time following the project. The objective: to deploy a libremesh network with mesh nodes on a school and a house (maybe some in between because there is 300m distance). The school and house must be able to host content related to their activities. Current scenario: at home I have a cellphone and a pc connected to a TP-Link router running LibreMesh. I have a running http server on the pc for testing purposes. The problem: from the phone I can't retrieve content using http://10.13.0.4:1234 (ip of the pc and port of the node server). Now some questions: 1) how can I diagnose if there are configuration problems? 2) should the devices connected to mesh nodes have a name in the DNS provided by the router? (I'm thinking of http://school-node/some/content) If there is some documentation where you can point me to, I'll be very thankful. Sorry if something is missing in my question, english is not my native language. Thanks in advance, Pedro.

[lime-users] Manual install instructions?

by michael howard

Do we have something like instructions for installing libremesh manually, starting from a plain openwrt router?

[lime-users] Distributed Mesh Network and Storage protocols

by fred

I recently get attention on * IPFS: https://ipfs.io * YGGDRASIL: https://yggdrasil-network.github.io/about.html This both combined gives amazing network features... In the opinion of Lime conceptors and users, won't it be nice to compare and merge mesh technologies?
