 +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. Official launch was today.
