=== #467 - SE: 26th and Gladstone ===
Details: ["Node467"][[BR]]
The first node I've hookedup that truly doesn't involve wires (well not off the property anyway). It gains access to the internet via ["Node378"] using a second radio and directional "Vagi" antenna. In exchange for the small amount of power and the attic space/roof mount for the Soekris and antenna the homeowners are provided with free wired high-speed access without the nuisance of NoCat authentication. You can pull about 60K/second plus through this node despite the fact that it doesn't have its own DSL connection.
=== #504 - NE: Rocky Butte ===
Details: ["Node504"][[BR]]
While I haven't exactly been heavily involved in the work on this node I want to claim some involvement for donating some hardware and working with Don Park to get the mast initially mounted to the chimney. This node is the first of what hopefully will be several interconnected nodes to make up the PTPnet - Portlands first real community wireless network.

#378 - SE: Brooklyn: Labarre Machine Works

Details: ["Node378"]BR Gary of Labarre Machine Works has donated everything for this node including hardware, internet bandwidth and rooftop access. Initial install is a Soekris 4511 with an Engenius 200mw radio connected to an 8dbi Maxrad omni antenna mounted on the roof of an industrial building with excellent line-of-site to a good piece of the neighborhood. Coverage includes Brooklyn School Park as well as at least a hundred residential units. Thanks Gary!

#114 - SE: Mt. Scott Park

Details: ["Node114"]BR I'm running a node out of my home in southeast Portland near Mt. Scott park near 72nd and Woodstock. This setup is a Soekris 4521 with an Engenius 200mw PCMCIA radio connected to an 8dbi Maxrad omni antenna mounted on my roof about 30 feet above the ground. This node was installed in December 2001 and the hardware was upgraded in February 2003. I've been running a node since early 2000 but moved to this location in 2001 and deleted my previous entry.
