[lime-users] intro to this list, me and Caimito

by Patricio Gibbs

I joined the list a few weeks ago, and before my first LiMe post, here's an intro: Caimito is a community of ~40 people, with neighboring towns of ~300 and ~100, and tourists who visit. We currently have a 3 Mbps connection, shared with the friend whose house it's in (22 km away, connected via Ubiquiti PBE-M5-400)) and three WDR3500 routers in Caimito, all connected by UTP cable. Caimito: https://osm.org/go/YCpV3r1Nl-- I grew up near Houston, TX, USA, and now live in Caimito, Esmeraldas, Ecuador. I met Nico, Jesi, and Gui in 2012, and this year I went back to visit and joined AlterMundi. I have very little programming experience, quite a bit of configuring-stuff experience, use GNU/Linux since 2011 (Manjaro at the moment), ask lots of questions, and avoid my keyboard due to tendonitis. My focus over the years mixes computer tech, agriculture, community self-determination, bioregionalism, permaculture, group dynamics, ecologically-minded decision-making, raising compassionate and critical-thinking kids. ~ Pato

[lime-users] archer c50 + cooking for mediatek

by bruno vianna

Hello everyone (and Pau specially) In our efforts to replace the wdr3500/3600 as the most accessible dual band routers, I came across tp-link archer c50, which is pretty inexpensive in Brazil. The SoC is a MediaTek MT7620A, so before buying one I tried to cook an image for mediatek with the command: ./cooker -c mediatek/generic --profile=Default --flavor=lime_default But after a while it fails. The log file is attached. Any help is appreciated! Bruno -- bruno(a)pobox.com ▀─█▄██▄▀▄ http://brunovianna.net ─█▄██▄▀█▀█▄ skype: randomico▀─█▄██▄▀█▀█▄▌██─█▌█▌

[lime-users] back to vpn

by bruno vianna

so, as i had mentioned to nicolas some time ago, i'd like to encrypt and tunnel the whole traffic of a local network and would like to try do it in a raspi. i actually tried this configuration and it works really well. i made a post in portuguese [1], based on this [2]. all traffic routed to the raspi is sent over to a openvpn server. i actually changed the dhcp server on a openwrt router to give out the raspi address as gateway to all clients in the network, making the whole thing transparent to the users. now the question is, of course, how to get this working in libre-mesh? simply changing the /etc/config/dhcp didn't work, since alfred seems to be the one filling dhcp requests. also, there seems to be two approaches: this first one would be to change the gateway in the clients when they receive the dhcp lease. the other would be to keep the localnode gateways (x.x.0.1) and route the traffic from them to the raspi. then there is also the issue of having more than one exits to the internet. right now the raspi is hardwired to the actual exit gateway (outside libre-mesh). but it could be automagically updated to use the best exit. it also nice to have the raspi physically close to the exit, so that that less internal bandwidth is wasted. any thoughts? thanks! bruno [1]http://www.brunovianna.net/documenta/?p=93 [2]https://gist.github.com/superjamie/ac55b6d2c080582a3e64 -- bruno(a)pobox.com ▀─█▄██▄▀▄ http://brunovianna.net ─█▄██▄▀█▀█▄ skype: randomico▀─█▄██▄▀█▀█▄▌██─█▌█▌

[lime-users] setting one mesh device as gateway? (and nanostation M2 update)

by James Lewis

Hi all, Thanks for previous help getting nanostation M2 working. It worked great downgrading first to AirOS 5.5.11 then installing the nano factory firmware. I have two M2's, and they have automatically meshed and we can connect two devices to their ethernet ports, the devices both get IP address and we can ping between the connected devices! All good! (Except there is no gateway IP issued - is that expected?) Now the quesiton is: how do we set one of the mesh devices to _take_ DHCP through the LAN port rather than give it, and to be the 'gateway' device on the mesh network, and then what will happen with devices that subsequently connect to the mesh? How will they get their gateway set? Thanks for help! Sorry if this is a bit of a newb question, it's not immediately clear from the configuration docs, any rtfm answer pointing to speciifc documentation also appreciated. James
