Topic : Use for a Linsys BEFW1154 Ver. 4 ????

Buddy of mine at work had this old router and knew of my HSMM project and just gave it to me.

I don't see it listed on the "Useable" device list.

Any useability at all for HSMM? 

If not just going to trash it as I am moving towards all Ubiquiti devices and probably going to sell off the other 3 WRT54GS's I have.

Topic : Wierd behavior

I have a WRT54GS version 1 router that had DD-WRT firmware on it. I followed the GUI install of BBHN firmware but now after the router reset it is in MESH AP mode ( ip of 172.27.0.1 ).

Can't find my saved link to how to do a master reset thru the telnet access way into the router.

Anyone have that link handy?

Guess there are forum limitations since the webpage does not take up the full use of my browser window either.

Well those images did not come up very well. Guess I need to find a different host for the images so that they will appear in full scale resolution.

Here are the images I just took for screen captures off our Anritsu SiteMaster S332E. This is using the antenna that is labelled 25dBi for 2.4GHz purchased from eBay. (NOTE I AM NOT AN EXPERT WITH THE SITEMASTER.) I did not have the software installed to make actual images from the screen so these are just iPhone shots.

VSWR


Return Loss


Smith Chart






I am in no way an expert with the SiteMaster, so these images may be useless. However, here they are for reference. My initial impression with the plots is that it is not 25 dBi gain like the claim, however the coax is pretty small and it does not have designators to reference so it could be very lossy there.

Appears to be an unrelated issue.

I would suggest DIRECT mode until a fix comes out.

K6AH> We actually have one ham that has ordered a NanoBridge. I just received my connectors in the mail for the adaptation of RP-SMA to N and will be connecting to our Anritsu SiteMaster. I am curious about how well this antenna works as well. I will say this, in actual use I have noticed a significant improvement in directionality and receive signal indicators. For the price it was well worth purchasing one to try out.

I've heard mixed reviews on the 25dBi yagi... logic tells me the boom is much too wide for the length of the elements. You would do well to at least consider the NanoBridge as an alternative. It also gives you both vertical and horizontal radiation patterns which you may find real useful in high-noise environments. Andre, K6AH

Basics sells the TP-Link line of wifi stuff on their website. They have yagis, grills and omnis. I bought my grill (dish) and omni from them, had them delivered to the nearest store for pickup. $50 each. Radioworld sells a MFJ yagi I've been trying. Works reasonably well for $40, and has a 1/4" nut so I can put it on a camera tripod. Finally, you can make a 'cantenna' for about $20 of Home Depot parts and a bulkhead N connector. You'll also need a couple of RP-TNC to N pigtails. I got mine from E-Bay for about $7 each. Have fun.

Topic : DCARA Recommended Equipment

DCARA Members,

Many of you have been asking for information as to which antennas and equipment I've purchased to go along with my Ubiquiti Rocket M2. For the sake of simplicity I am compiling the list here:

Rocket M2

Ubiquiti Rocket M2 (many vendors available, purchase through club and we will have connectors and cable available soon.)

25dBi Yagi for 2.4GHz

2.4 GHz 25dBi Yagi: http://www.ebay.com/itm/RP-SMA-2-4GHz-25-DBi-Wireless-WLAN-WiFi-Antenna-For-Yagi-Modem-PCI-Card-Router-/111329400253?pt=US_Directional_Network_Antennas&hash=item19ebbfd5bd

TP-Link 2.4GHz 12dBi Vertical

2.4GHz 12dBi Omni Directional: http://www.ebay.com/itm/TP-Link-2-4GHz-12dBi-Omni-Directional-Outdoor-Wireless-Vertical-Antenna-WIFI-/230933790877?pt=US_Directional_Network_Antennas&hash=item35c4ba009d

Sorry image link is not cooperating.

N-Maile to RP-SMA 24" Cable LMR-400 Ultraflex: http://www.l-com.com/coaxial-n-male-to-rp-sma-plug-400-ultra-flex-series-assembly-20-ft

All said and done with a little hunting I've only spent around $200 on the complete package.

I will try those out and see what I can do, Im still stock with antennas right now though so it might be impossible until i get my hands on a yagi or the likes, just looking for a good source to buy from.

Topic : 1.1.0 DNS Propagation

I'm not sure if 1.1.1 actually fixed the problem. Attached is the screenshot of my configuration setup for the 1.0.0 software. My computer interface is inet addr:172.27.0.5  Bcast:172.27.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0.

With the 1.0.0 software everything worked. I could see all the nodes and get to them with my web browser as well as ping each 10.0.0.0/8 node. Not sure if there was some NAT going on in the router but it all worked.

With 1.1.1 I can only ping or access the local node, I can't ping or get to any attached node even though they show up as in the mesh. I can ssh into my local node and it can ping and see everyone but my computer on the lan can only see the local node.

Any ideas? Sounds like a NAT/MASQUERADE/Firewall change.?

Topic : Antenna Source Ontario

Hi All

I'm building my WRT54G army and was wondering if anyone has a source for antennas in Ontario Canada region? Most of my setup would be mobile for now until i can convince a repeater group to start meshing. Any opinion on the off shore ebay deals?


Thanks

Shawn

The Software Download page currently shows only v.1.0 firmware for Linksys devices. Is there some other location on the web site where v.1.1 downloads are available?
