'''Node Info:'''<
>I'm getting ready to set up my second PTP node at my home in [[WikiPedia:Hillsboro,_Oregon|Hillsboro]] (Brookwood neighborhood). (My first node was a short-lived one in [[WikiPedia:Scappoose,_Oregon|Scappoose]] from 2001 to mid-2002.)
My current plans are to use a [[http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833162134|Buffalo WHR-HP-G54]] and install [[http://www.dd-wrt.com/site/index|DD-WRT]] on it. I would like to replace the antenna with an outdoor omnidirectional anntena like [[http://www.fab-corp.com/product.php?productid=1541|this 9dBi model]]. I'll mount the WHR router in a weatherproof enclosure onto the mast that the antenna. I'll use [[http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833127048|D-Link DWL-P200]] units to provide [[WikiPedia:Power_over_Ethernet|Power over Ethernet]].
One of the reasons why I'm looking at the WHR-HP-G54 is so that I could easily create a [[http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Mesh_Networking_with_OLSR|mesh network]] to expand the coverage. If you live near [[http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=SW+Brookwood+Ave+&+SE+Cedar+St,+Hillsboro,+Oregon&sll=45.516828,-122.937462&sspn=0.009818,0.022724&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=SE+Cedar+St+&+SW+Brookwood+Ave,+Hillsboro,+Washington,+Oregon+97123&ll=45.516061,-122.936647&spn=0.004909,0.011362&t=h&z=17|SW Brookwood Ave. & SE Cedar St.]] and are interested in hosting a repeater, please send me an email.
'''Other Projects:'''<
>I would like to put together a project that would be a deployable WiFi system. The basic setup would include the same as my home node, however I would like to put together a partnership with [[http://www.clear.com/|Clear]] to provide the Internet backhaul. In addition I would have 3 or 4 more WHR-HP-G54 routers that would be deployed as repeaters throughout an area.
My plan was to try to have something together for the [[http://www.faircomplex.com/fair2010/index.php|Washington County Fair]] (July 29th through August 1st), however I'm not sure if there is currently enough time. I'll be contacting the fairgrounds to see if they would be interested.
