Land Ops - The Off Road, Navigation and Amateur Radio Search Club
If you're going on the recon we can do a dress rehearsal then. I imagine we can set up a few actual mesh stations at actual locations in Death Valley.
I guess I am going to try and figure this out. I just purchased a WRT54GS brand new in the box. Total cost with tax was $3.17 from my local Salvation Army. I guess I need to start watching videos and figure this all out. Any tips will be appreciated. I plan on attending the Search and Rescue Op so hopefully I will be up and running by then.
Jeff, did they have any more Linksys boxes there? Perhaps we should all have another field day workshop at a park to connect the mesh and test things out.
There was one more there but I did not check the model because they wanted $15 for that one. I will go back and check it. If it one of the correct models I will pick it up too. I think it will be 30% off so it should still be relatively cheap.
Yes, if its the right modem could you pick it up. I'll buy it off you if you let me.
I went back today and it was gone. I will keep looking around for another one.
Jeff, thanks for the effort. I really appreciate it. No worries. I'll pick one or two up where I can. Getting ready for the Nov 8th and 22nd ops.
Ok, I updated the firmware and followed all the steps. I guess I have a mesh node now although I still don't know what I am supposed to do with it. I will bring it to the Op in case you want to use it Chris. If I can't do anything with it I will donate it to you and the group. I have a basic understanding of how this works so I am guessing you want to use them to relay video etc around the area of the op. Let me know what I should do next.
Jeff, I don't think you can really check it unless you have a second device. Bring it along and we'll connect it up, test it and deploy for the Death Valley SAR op.
