Maintenance and System Log
- 2020-05-03: Gear installed
- 2021-02-20: Maintenance involving replacement of power supplies (due to sabotage) and provision of an enclosure to enhance security of the devices
- 2021-06-12: Reports of problems with ethernet run across the street (possible damage) and possible water intrusion into AP2 (at the south village), requesting more information.
2021-07-01: Outage intensified as the heatwave came on and it was not functioning over the weekend. Got down there the evening of 6/30, but missed Andrew, so came back today (he has the key to the enclosure), found the ER-X not working correctly, took it home, discovered a bad-block error in the NAND flash in the /rom section, rendering part of the squashfs unreadable, explaining the failure to connect its network despite powering the NanoBeam, recovered by TFTP booting a initramfs image, then reflashing (this seems to map out the bad block via the ubi block layer), and it seemed to function properly after that. I cleaned up the case, relabelled the ports for more clarity and also printed labels for the ethernet cables to ensure they are plugged in correctly. --RussellSenior
