Saw nodes in the Bernal Heights / Mission area today
Hi, I put up a new node today on channel 1 and saw someone playing around with a bunch of nodes around 6pm today. They look like they are down now, but on the off chance that you read this, drop me a line.

A little more information is following. The Pi that I am trying to get the topology bbhn-utils to work on is also a Pi NODE. I am sure that this will have an affect on how the program works. If you have a fix or it won't work at all, please let me know.

Topic :
bbhn-utils topology
I have the bbhn-utils topology working on my ubuntu Pi. (16.04.02) at http://w4qed/hamshack.info:8888/img/topology.png and I'm trying to help another ham get it working on his Raspbian GNU/Linux 8. Anyway everything seemed to install well using: sudo apt-get install phthon3 graphviz imagemagick awscli xdot -y I am getting the following error when running topology.sh (after a very long delay): Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.4/urllib/request.py", line 1174, in do_open h.request(req.get_method(), req.selector, req.data, headers) File "/usr/lib/python3.4/http/client.py", line 1090, in request self._send_request(method, url, body, headers) File "/usr/lib/python3.4/http/client.py", line 1128, in _send_request self.endheaders(body) File "/usr/lib/python3.4/http/client.py", line 1086, in endheaders self._send_output(message_body) File "/usr/lib/python3.4/http/client.py", line 924, in _send_output self.send(msg) File "/usr/lib/python3.4/http/client.py", line 859, in send self.connect() File "/usr/lib/python3.4/http/client.py", line 836, in connect self.timeout, self.source_address) File "/usr/lib/python3.4/socket.py", line 509, in create_connection raise err File "/usr/lib/python3.4/socket.py", line 500, in create_connection sock.connect(sa) TimeoutError: [Errno 110] Connection timed out
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

I am wondering if it is because it is having trouble accessing the NODE? It is linked to a WRT54GS. Now I did change the topology.sh from: /home/pi/bin/topology.py > /tmp/topology.dot to read: /mnt/bbhn-utils/topology.py > /tmp/topology.dot Of course using: sudo ./topology.sh
Thanks, Ben ARS w4qed

W5HTF Node Observed from Pikes Peak
I live south of Centennial with decent LOS to the north, hoping to get a node set up here soon, but I'm a bit stumped as far as the hardware goes. The Ubiquity stuff is more modern, but what I've read about the firmware incompatibilities scares me a bit. Not sure what hardware would be 'best'. |

Everything works fine except the WAN part of the node A NODE B and the LAPTOP get their IPs from the NODE A The DHCP Server is disabled on the router. I dont know what i'm doing wrong... Any idea ?

Topic :
Reflash wrt54gl with linksys firmware.
Here's what I was told. I worked with my WRT54G.
"Download the firmware from the Linksys Web site. (http://www.linksys.com/us/support/)
If you have not already done so enable TFTP on your computer. To enable TFTP open Control Panel > Programs and Features > click Turn Windows features On or Off in left side > enable Client TFTP then click in OK.
Disable the WIFI on your computer.
Set the LAN Port on your computer to use a static IP in the 192.168.1.xxx range. Do not use 1, 2 or 20 for xxx. I normally use 100.
In order to keep the LAN connection open on the computer it is best to use an Ethernet switch between the node and the computer. Connect a Cat 5 cable between a LAN Port on the node and the Switch and a second Cat 5 cable between the switch and the LAN Port on your computer.
In windows explorer navigate to the directory where you placed the firmware file. Right click on the file name and select properties. Highlight the file name and type control-c to copy the file name to the clipboard.
Open a command prompt (Start, All Programs, Accessories, Command Prompt) on your computer.
In the command prompt window, type but do not press enter TFTP –I 192.168.1.1 put
With the cursor in the command prompt window right click your mouse to paste the name of the firmware file into the command. (Be sure to get the full path to the file.) Do Not Press Enter yet.
Here is the tricky part. Remove the power from your node, wait a few seconds and plug it back in. About ½ second later, hit enter on the computer to run the TFPT command. You are trying to hit about a small window in the boot up sequence that is about ½ second long. If the TFTP command times out, repeat steps 8 -10 waiting just a little bit longer or shorter to hit enter.
Once you hit the window with TFTP command, the node will upload the new firmware and reboot. It should come back up with the factory firmware on it."
I have done this to both restore the factory firmware and to reflash the mesh firmware for a forgotten password or buggered configuration issue.
YMMV Good luck. |

Topic :
Node does not accept username and password
I'm trying to set up a mesh node. I have a Linksys WRT54G v 3.1 router. Following the online directions, I flashed it with the file 'bbhn-3.1.0-wrt54g-2.4-squashfs.bin'. Everything seemed to work as advertised. When the router came up as a mesh node, I did the initial configuration with a username of WA7SKG-100 and a password that contained a number and an "@" sign. It accepted that and rebooted as the instructions said it would. However, after the reboot and it identifying itself as WA7SKG-100, when I try to go into setup, a popup window asks for the username and password. When I enter it, the box just blanks and asks again for U/P. At first, I thought maybe I forgot what password I set (I did break for dinner). I finally reflashed with tftp and started over. This time I wrote down the password. Same problem. Reflashed again and reconfigured, this time using an alpha only password. Same problem. I cannot get in for any further configuration after setting a username and password. Any ideas on what I am doing wrong? I need to get this going for Field Day.
