The email seems to be cancelled and the posts seem to be old. I am trying to resuscitate some previous HSMM system I built several years ago. Thanks! |

Topic :
Wow, no problem.
I want to thank the people who wrote the software and the documentation. I was able to install new firmware into my WRT54GL without any problems. It just plain worked like it was supposed to. I bought a second WRT54GL and installed it there as well, and each unit can see the other. My biggest problem now is that I'm too far away from anyone else here in the Charlotte, NC area, so my mesh is only my two nodes. I'll be ready when a neighbor sets one up.
Thanks again for software and documentation that just plain worked. de K4EGP |

Subject :Ubiquiti Bullet M2 , selected access point and now I can't get back in....Help
Hi all, I have a Ubiquiti Bullet M2 that was working fine and after I selected the access point setting I can't get back in. so far I have tried a pushing the reset switch under the bullet for 3-7 seconds and try again to log in with the following http://localnode:8080 and no go, also try to do a hard reset (more time holding the reset switch like 13-20 seconds) and still no go. also try to Power off the bullet and hold the reset switch and power back on while holding the reset switch and after waiting a while for the unit to come on the led lights keep flashing for a while and then power off and back on and still no go, I think I did a hard reset to all the software but no go still. can anyone help? Thanks. n6toc |

KI5HVG, good to hear! It's 8/17/2020 as I type this...a bit of a delay LOL! At the risk of sharing (one of) my email addresses in public, feel free to email me directly at k5hrvham@gmail.com if you'd be willing to coordinate and perhaps provide a little light Elmer-ing as I pick this project up again and try to get going with this aspect of amateur radio. 73 de K5HRV |

WRT54G Router Locked in Access Point Mode
the quickest way I know is if it is showing on wifi as BROADBAND-HAMNET-20-V3 connect through a second working mesh router. Or upload a .trx file. |

How to change XTAL in WRT-54 series??
I read somewhere that the 20 MHz xtal could be changed to 19.6608 MHz to move more channels into the ham band and avoid interference with shared "channels". I only see two xtals on the circuit board: 25.000 and 48.000 MHz. I have not removed the shield cover. Is it under the shield? Any info you can provide on this mod will be appreciated. John, W0GN

I am just now starting the process of setting up my first node. I'm way north Austin so I can't be much help but would still like to keep in touch in case you can connect with my node (or vv) on the mesh network. |

Linksys ERT5X antenna question
As a new HAM I'm still learning a lot. I am weak mastering knowledge in so many areas but trying.
I have set up my node using a Linksys WRT54G. It is confirmed flashed and ready to roll. I'm about to put it up on my chimney next to my dual band antenna (2m/70cm) which extends about a foot or two above the chimney crown. I was planning on attaching the linksys on the top of my chimney mounted vertically with a box around it that is sealed (but large enough for the captured air to to insulate. It might have a door so I can access the unit or I might just have to cut around the sealant when I need to get to it. It shouldn't be exposed to very much sunlight in the summer so i'm not too worried about overheating since it won't be processing data all the time.
I am powering the unit via ethernet with A/C power pigtails on both ends of the ethernet Cat7 so I won't be running any extension power cord to the unit. Two of the unused channels in the ethernet cable will run the power to power to the unit. I'll plug in the 12-volt converter at shack end of the line so I'll only have 12 volts running through the ether. This way only the ethernet cat7 cable will connect from shack to node.
My question is about an antenna. I understand that the two Linksys WRT54G's antennas are specifically designed for one to transmit and one to receive. If that is the case, can I just use a duplexer to blend the signal and route it through the box (sealed penetration) and run that short single coax into a mag mount 2.4GHz antenna a top the metal chimney crown? I am close enough to two other nodes (about a mile away and line of sight) so I believe they will communicate without a directional beam antenna. I am pretty high in NW Austin so I think my signal can be picked up pretty easily.
Side note, if there are any node owners in the NW Austin area around Oak Knoll/Jollyville/183, content me please. I'd like to talk about the signal strength as I set this up. I can be contacted at ham@texcode.com
(I had images to show but they wouldn't upload even when reduced to <50k jpegs)
