Details
The main part of this node, the Soekris embedded system, is located on the roof of KeeganQuinn's parents' house. The best coverage is along Hassalo St., roughly a block in either direction. This portion of the node is currently offline.
The 3com AP is located inside on the second floor. Street access should be available at short range.
The node aims to provide access to PTPnet; see NetworkAddressAllocations for addressing information. Unfortunately, the link to ["Node504"] is not yet completely stable. Check back soon for more information. Internet access is available as well.
Some photos of the surrounding area, equipment, and installation are available:
