| + | Gabe heard today that the hotspot was down. I checked the logs, and indeed -- no logins since Feb 23. I didn't manage to get the key, but went to the venue. I couldn't get online, but I could ssh into the wireless router. When I disabled wifidog, I could ping the internet, but it was flaky. I rebooted the router. When it came back up, the router wasn't getting an IP address from the modem. I waited 10 minutes and checked again, and it was all working. | ||

| + | OpenVPN still isn't working. It seems to be because the certificate has expired. Oops. | ||

| + | Gabe went to the site today to get it back online. There was no ethernet link between the router and the DSL modem, so I swapped in a new router. To set up the new router, I changed the IP address, SSID (since it's a custom one at this venue), and whitelisted the solar device. When I left, it was working great. | ||

| + | The City has switched the DSL service from Teksavvy to Bell. In the process they had to reconfigure the modem. The details are saved in [[private:venues:|private:venues:]]. The hotspot is now up again! | ||

| + | Official launch was today. The wifi coverage is quite good, but the signal strength drops off quickly outside the shed. Even nearby, the devices I checked with showed just one or two bars. This isn't a problem in practice, but it looks bad. Putting a new antenna on might help. Or a more powerful router. | ||
| + | |||
| + | At Noel's insistence, I changed the SSID to "[wt] Dawes Crossing." | ||

| Gabe installed this node today. It's a caseless WRT54G in a lockable outdoor enclosure, inside the utility shed in the park. The DSL modem is in 'router' mode, so the wifi router gets a DHCP IP. The shed is locked (and we don't have a key), and the enclosure is locked (Gabe has the key). There's a bunch of power equipment in the shed, and one device that goes online. It's plugged into the wifi router's Ethernet, and I've whitelisted its MAC address (00:1d:c0:60:58:25) in /etc/wifidog.conf. | Gabe installed this node today.
