Agenda

• Node notes:

  • NodeKlickitat

    • discovered two bugs in OpenWrt/LEDE that affect the network
      • a very old kernel panic when the brcm47xx CPU is overloaded routing traffic (solved by replacing WGT634U with WDR3600)
      • bullet m devices try to train their 100 Mbps ethernet interface at a gigabit and fails, recovered by manually running /etc/init.d/network restart or by rebooting with no link at the other end of the ethernet.

  • NodeCommunitecture is still offline

  • NodePrinceton -- got an email inquiring about installing more access points

• <add your item>

Notes

• Discussed what likely happened to Ted's ethernet (wire crimping) project.
• Node notes:

  • NodeKlickitat

    • Sent in bug reports for IPv6 assignments in BATMAN, kernel panics (hardware replacement workaround).
    • Shoe leather workarounds for issues with interfaces.

  • NodePrinceton - should have capacity on the gateway to to wire one final AP. Russell suggested they run ethernet to every room.

* Caught Ben up on changes in last several months, LEDE usage as opposed to OpenWrt, would like to evaluate NodogAuth, Intel volunteer (Director of Outreach - officially rejected first candidate offered as too technical). * New hardware frequently does not have opensource drivers for radios (though there are a few exceptions). * Name change discussion - Network should serve the community interest. * Next week's meeting could be CBar, but Russell will try to contact David Schor for suggestions.
