AREDN Release Notes v3.20.3.0 – 27 March 2020
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.
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.

AREDN v3.18.9.0 Release Discussion
AREDN v3.18.9.0 Release Discussion
This isn't the first time I have had AREDN developers and information on this show, and I promise it won't be the last either. MESH networking is a pinnacle definition of "What is new in Amateur Radio" and I thoroughly enjoy talking about it and experimenting with it.
In this episode, I get to speak with Darryl and Joe from the developer team about the new 318 firmware - what changes were made and what new hardware has been added to the supported list of devices.

It’s been a while since I’ve written anything – lots going on, both radio and non-radio related, and I don’t have the time to write as much as I’d like to. So I thought I’d take a few minutes to talk more about Mesh Networking, the AREDN, and operating mobile.

BBHN vs AREDN Firmware Discussion
Mar 25, 2015 - If you are just starting out with mesh experimenting and go looking for firmware, the first thing you will discover is that there are now two different ham mesh projects. One is named BBHN the other AREDN. Here is what I have been able to determine by poking around. I have sent this same info by email to several users so it may be old news to some, but in order to get everyone up to speed here it goes again..
In regards BBHN vs AREDN, there is a bit of controversy right now. At the moment they are exactly the same firmware with the exception of the SSID that is set. A short summary of the situation is that there are two main groups working on the Ham mesh project. One is in Texas around Austin, the other in CA in the San Diego area. The Austin group did the original mesh modifications to OpenWRT, the base OS, using the WRT54 platform. Many continue to use the Linksys routers today. That initial project was called HSMM. The San Diego team developed the later versions of the firmware that were renamed BBHN, and started supporting the more capable Ubiquiti radios. Most recently the SD guys wanted to drop support for WRT altogether. They site the vast superiority of the Ubiquiti gear and the fact that the firmware features they want to add in the future won't fit in the WRT's limited memory. This lack of WRT support was a strong point of disagreement between the two groups and a "divorce" resulted. This happened in the last month or so. The average users were basically in the dark during the "breakup";
