They are more robust than traditional centralized networks, in that they can dynamically adapt to changes in their surroundings and automatically reconfigure themselves according to the current availability of resources.</div><div> <br />3.A decentralized, flexible and redundant network in which each node is connected to every other node.<div><br /></div><span><a name='more'></a></span><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></div>AREDNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16690492064346040533noreply@blogger.com0Toronto, ON, Canada43.653226 -79.383184315.342992163821151 -114.5394343 71.963459836178842 -44.226934299999996tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4657447945931811342.post-49263342695944906762023-03-16T02:56:00.004-04:002023-04-20T06:35:19.354-04:00AREDN Linking 802.11N and 802.11AC units questionAREDN Linking 802.11N and 802.11AC units question<br /><br />Question for you: If a mountain top site upgrades to an AC unit, can a mix of 802.11N and 802.11AC units run at their native speeds or would all stations be restricted to run at 802.11N?<div><br /></div><span><a name='more'></a></span><div><br /></div><div><br />All links with an 802.11n unit at one end or both use 802.11n modulation rates (which vary according to link quality)<br /><br />Any link with the 802.11ac at both ends has the potential to run a bit faster (but only if very good link quality exists). <br /><br />Most of the speed improvements 802.11ac is capable of stem from its use of 40 or 80 MHz wide channels. That ain't happenin' on the 5 GHz ham radio bands.. (and note that there's no support for 802.11ac on the 2 GHz band).<br /><br /><br />I believe 802.11ac has one additional MCS (Modulation and coding scheme) index than 802.11n and if link conditions permit, it will shift up to that.<br /><br />Wireless technology is quite complex. Browse <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11ac-2013">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11ac-2013</a> to get a flavor of it :-) Bear in mind that the data rates shown for various MCS levels don't show them for 10 or 5 MHz channels. Divide the throughput numbers shown for 20 MHz channels accordingly to get the maximum possible modulation rate for 10 or 5 MHz channels.<br /><br />And there's a good explanation of each of the wireless standards here: <a href="https://computer.howstuffworks.com/wireless-network.htm">https://computer.howstuffworks.com/wireless-network.htm</a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></div>AREDNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16690492064346040533noreply@blogger.com0Toronto, ON, Canada43.653226 -79.383184315.342992163821151 -114.5394343 71.963459836178842 -44.226934299999996tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4657447945931811342.post-59611829944011775562023-03-14T02:52:00.008-04:002023-04-20T06:38:08.037-04:00AREDN 802.11ac replacements for existing gear802.11ac replacements for existing gear<br /><br />Attached is a doc that shows some 802.11ac devices that are appropriate for new installs, or upgrades of existing equipment. While the software for them is still in the nightly builds, the software is stable and they'll be included in the next production release, which should be soon.<br /><br />All 802.11ac devices:<div><ol style="text-align: left;"><li>Have Gigabit Ethernet ports, two in some cases, and five for the Mikrotik hAP ac2 & ac3</li><li>Have faster CPUs</li><li>Have more RAM</li><li>Most have more flash memory</li><li>Appear to have more sensitive receivers</li><li>Report true noise level</li></ol></div><span><a name='more'></a></span><div><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Those of us who have tested 802.11ac devices in production environments are very happy with the improvement in performance. YMMV of course, but I've found with very good link qualities, throughput (as measured with iperf3) can be close to double when both ends have been upgraded.<br /><br />They report true noise level, rather than the 'fake' -95 dB every 802.11n device shows, regardless of true noise level. Again YMMV but typically I've found the typical noise level to be 5-6 dB better (lower) than -95. While signal strengths don't improve, the lower noise level makes every SNR better :-)<br /><br />The faster CPU allows for faster web page updates (assuming the network throughput allows it).<br /><br />Bottom line - don't buy any more 802.11n devices <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi890IMJzEczkpXm2MKXoPmwqNb0XkumO24tjo_XGW-GD9YiKlBdbOIrMD1-H8Y8J14czUvT702w-d3yEhcum7KgcDxvyGdpYBWXRLB-iKftF8tjUAiC18WNlWsx_xr6oGs6Lb9u6GSzKeEWkxEJxOm8P-jv9-P26QVRfvbIHJZIHCIMeil5Kvcyg3lkw/s1536/75FCA6CF-7EBC-4A94-AB24-048E760C1BC4.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="904" data-original-width="1536" height="376" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi890IMJzEczkpXm2MKXoPmwqNb0XkumO24tjo_XGW-GD9YiKlBdbOIrMD1-H8Y8J14czUvT702w-d3yEhcum7KgcDxvyGdpYBWXRLB-iKftF8tjUAiC18WNlWsx_xr6oGs6Lb9u6GSzKeEWkxEJxOm8P-jv9-P26QVRfvbIHJZIHCIMeil5Kvcyg3lkw/w640-h376/75FCA6CF-7EBC-4A94-AB24-048E760C1BC4.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p>https://groups.io/g/AREDN</p><p>credits:: <span face=""Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #333333; font-size: 14px;">Orv W6BI</span></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p></div>AREDNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16690492064346040533noreply@blogger.com0Toronto, ON, Canada43.653226 -79.383184315.342992163821151 -114.5394343 71.963459836178842 -44.226934299999996tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4657447945931811342.post-42384926703849470862023-03-08T02:59:00.010-05:002023-04-25T09:09:46.361-04:00booth at SCALE this year 2023There's a photo attached of the team manning the AREDN booth at SCALE this year. <br /> Left to right: <br />Front: KE6BXT, KM6SLF. <br />Rear: KJ6DZB, KN6PLV, N6RFI.

You can simply connect to the remote control app (teamviewer etc) by sending a request to the IP of the remote AREDN node, e.g. the Teamviewer ID is simply 10.x.x.x where the Teamviewer client is listening for connections requests.</span></span></div><div><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #333333; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div><div><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #333333; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></div><div><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(51, 51, 51); color: #333333; font-size: 14px;"><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;">Update: TeamViewer is now only allowing outbound connections after you login with your username and password, which means you need a path to the internet first which is not available on our local AREDN mesh.</span><br style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;" /><span face=""Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif" style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;">Solution: Thanks to Ian VE7HHS for this... use open source TightVNC which is works without any such requirement. You just need to know the IP address of the AREDN node you are running your remote PC on. The traffic is also unencrypted in case you are concerned about the relevant regulations.

Although it maybe a bit of a loaded question and a question outside of my pay grade. <br /><br />I expect we understand the fundamentals, the purpose of an amateur radio emergency data network (AREDN). It is to provide typical Internet or intranet programs to people who need to communicate across a wide area during an emergency or community event. <br /><br />The types of program that can operate across a peer-to-peer TCP/IP network and RFare needed during emergency. They are typically use to communicate with each other in the course of compromised communication network at the time of natural disasters… <br /><br />This may include keyboard-to-keyboard chat, email messages with images and attachments, file transfer, collaborative document sharing, VoIP phone service, video conferencing, GPS tracking, surveillance camera streaming, computer aided dispatch, deployed resource management, weather station reporting, sensor monitoring and control, repeater linking, and many other similar services. </p><span><a name='more'></a></span><p></p><p></p><p><br /><br />Basic on a few (12) presentation viewed about Outernet // Othernet circa 2013 by yourself as the Founder (8:44/26:37) Syed Karim, KD9GII and (COO) Thane Richards presentations I’m still trying to peace it all together. <br /><br />IMHO, with that all said and maybe redundant, some of the tools within the othernet interface can be used and some other voids exist. The Othernet user model may change in the future, so time will tell. <br /><br />We understand Othernet broadcast messages when DMR sms are sent and include the subject in the text. This use of Radio, News, Weather, etc can be used during an emergency. <br /><br />@Syed knowing the bigger picture of the OtherNet you might have some clarification or suggestions how our community might benefit or utilize this tool? <br /><br />newly added note ::: your daughter’s name is beautiful <br /><br />Thanks for what you’ve created. <br /><br />how did you brand it :: OtherNet or Othernet ? because my typing of the word in this message may be wrong. <br /><br />73, A<br />.<br /> [ as of 18Feb2021 we know the Othernet network is down for a month(s) with maintenance / upgrades, so it’s all on hold until ]<br /> .<br />To be updated here : https://groups.io/g/AREDN </p><p><span></span></p><!--more--><p></p><p><br /></p><p>So the development to including the “broadcast” of the Othernet
system is expected to be similar to other IP tools. The integration is
unclear as having the two together is unknown and have not found anyone
else working on this project. The Mesh start was from (BBHM, HAMnet,
AREDN) and [pre“EricM SK”-Local-Comment]</p>
<p>The current AREDN-Amateur Radio Emergency Data Network is not active
as 2021, two (5g) dishes and Nano’s sit in the center of the city (DVP -
401) and unused until we have a working Othernet. [ 2021 February-
March is down for Maintenance ]</p>
<p>Once active it will then be deployed on the ubiquiti equipment with other devices like VoIP or other IP tools.</p>
<p>It’s all a humbling and a learning process.</p>
<p>It is my belief that this “Othernet” is a wonderful tool to incorporate into a MESH network topology.</p><p>

Not have any luck with it registering even with ports forwarding set up in IPtables.</p><br />Reply: Should be plug and play just like in any other network, don't need to open ports for the Allstar node to register. If you need inbound connections(from the internet) to your Allstar node then you need to Port forward UDP 4569 in two places, on your home network router and on the AREDN node connected to your home network. Reserve local IP for Allstar node under DHCP tab. <br /><br />If you are attempting to connect your Allstar nodes to each other on the same AREDN LAN, then you need to modify the rtp.conf files and map each node to the reserved IP address. <div>Refer to this document: https://www.hamvoip.org/multi-server%20howto.pdf<br />This will also work for Allstar nodes on different AREDN subnets, as long as you hardcode the node number and IPs in rtp.conf<br /><br />Reply: I setup several AllStar installs (HAMVOIP) which are all setup with both
one public and one private node number on a Raspberry PI3B using an
ethernet cable (eth0) to the LAN/router/WAN and a USB-to-Ethjernet
adapater on a newly defined *eth1* which is connected into my Mesh
network. I then "bridge" connect the public node to the private node on
the same box and then connect that to another private node (eg, at our
mtn top repeater). There are several ways to connect thru. Supermon web
interface makes it real easy.<br /><p>
<br />
It works great for me but the eth1 setup is a bit confusing at first.
Did a HT-to-local-pi-node thru to private (then over tunneled mesh
connect to 750+ miles aways) and out the other end in reverse. Allows me
to get to my mtn top repeater on different [mesh] paths when/if my
primary part15 5.8 link is down.<br />
<br />
Reminder: it's simply digital traffic - AllStar is simply VOIP over
IP-based network connection, hard part is figuring out how to define/let
HamVoip do the network connection path. (detailed instructions left
off)<br />

The *other* network connection from your AllStar-PI gets connected to a LAN port on your mesh and gets its 10.x.x.x. there from your node.<br /></p><p><span></span></p><br /><p>https://groups.io/g/AREDN</p><p>https://www.arednmesh.org/content/allstar <br /></p><p><br /></p></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0Toronto, ON, Canada43.653226 -79.38318431.2183644112487144 -149.69568429999998 86.088087588751279 -9.0706842999999964tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4657447945931811342.post-60154411100609452192021-01-16T03:07:00.008-05:002023-03-23T03:27:55.041-04:00Winlink | Amateur Radio Emergency Data Network<p>Winlink | Amateur Radio Emergency Data Network<br />AREDN Network Integration with Winlink</p><p> </p><p> working on ..... 2021 <br /></p><span><a name='more'></a></span><p><br /></p><p>working on ..... 2021<br /></p><p> Winlink | Amateur Radio Emergency Data Network</p><p> </p><p>https://groups.io/g/AREDN</p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0Toronto, ON, Canada43.653226 -79.383184315.342992163821151 -114.5394343 71.963459836178842 -44.226934299999996tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4657447945931811342.post-8354060860737876062020-05-28T14:54:00.009-04:002023-03-23T03:27:55.039-04:00Toronto CANADA AREDN Group - Amateur Radio Emergency Data NetworkToronto CANADA AREDN Group - Amateur Radio Emergency Data Network<br />This group is to encourage the use of the AREDN mesh networking software to create a ham radio network.

<br />
TFTP is trivial file transfer protocol. When you successfully complete the installation, the login user is ”root” and the password is “hsmm”.<br />
<br />
Please Note: This is for a Ubiquiti NanoStation loco M2, please check the list before proceeding. KC7NYR takes no responsibility if you follow the incorrect instructions and brick your device.<br />
<br />
1. If you have an earlier version of AREDN firmware on this device, use the user interface (UI) on the Administration page under Setup. Use the correct sysupgrade file. NOTE: Ensure that your WAN type is set to DHCP and not static. Upgrading with a static type of WAN address will brick the node and require a TFTP upgrade.<br />
<br />
2. If you are installing AREDN firmware on a new device, use the TFTP method to install AREDN firmware. Use the correct factory file.<br />

<br />
The AREDN team is pleased to announce the general availability of the latest stable release of AREDN firmware. We now fully support 70+ devices from four manufacturers. This diversity of supported equipment enables hams to choose the right gear for a given situation and budget.<br />
<br />
AREDN firmware is now based on the most recent stable version of OpenWRT19.07.2 which was released in March 2020. This improvement is significant in that it enables AREDN firmware to benefit from the many bug fixes, security improvements and feature enhancements provided by OpenWRT developers from around the world.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
The latest AREDN firmware contains features inherited from the newest OpenWRT upstream release (19.07.2). One important change is the inclusion of a new target (architecture) for the firmware, labelled “ath79”, which is the successor to the existing “ar71xx” targets. OpenWRT explains that their main goal for this target is to bring the code into a form that will allow all devices to run a standard unpatched Linux kernel. This will greatly reduce the amount of customization required and will streamline the firmware development process. As not all supported devices have been migrated to the new “ath79” target, AREDN continues to build firmware for both targets. You may notice that the AREDN download page has firmware for these two targets, and you should select the latest...<br />
