Agenda
- Pick location for next weekly
- Node notes:
NodeFirstUnitarian -- email'd JasonChapman, pinged him again today, then chatted. He's going to check out helping out with the expenses, thought a Saturday could work. Russell needs to order the antenna.
NodeAnnapurna -- contacted node host about ap12, he was going to check on it
NodeStreetRoots -- Russell saw Laquida last week at the CODE meeting and got an update on their network. CODE did a little write-up about their network. Ted happened to be in the neighborhood on Monday and stopped by to check on it, found it difficult to get through the captive portal. Curious about how much use the existing NodeStreetRoots has seen, counted 2959 unique MAC addresses have encountered our captive portal in 2024, but hard to say how that maps to people due to privacy features in modern mobile devices. Tentatively picked Friday, October 18 as the day to decommission the network.
The People's Digital Safety Fair staffing, needs (anything printed)?

Notes
- Node notes:
NodeFirstUnitarian - Contact made, OK to get on roof, another contact for Saturday. Would inquire about contributing towards $400
NodeLuckyLabNW - May mount to outside of building wall
NodeLuckyLab - Gary blocked mac addresses on Comcast modem, cleaned out other addresses, back online
NodeAnnapurna - Contacted Ole, he will take a look, not sure which it was, but maybe with the light out?
NodeStreetRoots - Last Thursday was the CODE meeting at FreeGeek, Russell also talked with Q.
Ted tried the new network on phone, captive portal was slow and non working. On laptop got a bit further. Discussed with Ronin (AfroVillage) who was out front. Eventually... the laptop connected. Once authenticated the network performed well.
- Unique mac addresses at old node was ~2959 entities
- Dismantle old network Friday the 18th.
- People's Digital Safety Fair - Sharing table with EFF (and maybe Community Broadband PDX), so don't need booth bunnies
Next week's meeting is AnnualBoardMeeting2024 at NodeLuckyLab
