 +Jutta emailed a couple of days ago saying that stuff'​s down.  Michael went by, rebooted the gear in the kitchen using the powerbar behind the fridge, and it all seemed to come back fine.

 +On Nov 5 both wifidog and open-mesh reported that the routers at DGP were down.  Gabe contacted the folks at the park via email, and they confirmed that while they were moving the computer, they ran into equipment trouble. ​ The power supply for the wimax modem broke again, and Rogers refused to replace it (instead offering to sell them a new modem for $100), so they got a new power supply (at Active Surplus?​). ​ In the process, the wired router stopped working. ​ I went by today to check it out.  It looks like the (5V) USR wired router died, perhaps because the (12V) Linksys power supply had been plugged into it.  I plugged the modem into the Linksys router, whitelisted the rinkhouse Dell workstation and the open-mesh gateway router in /​etc/​wifidog.conf,​ and now things are working. ​ The USR router has been pitched. ​ Gabe will pick up a new wired router sometime soon and come back to plug it in.

 The mesh network at DGP went down a couple of days ago.  I emailed staff to ask them to powercycle the rinkhouse router, but the network didn't come back up, so I went by to take a look.  There was no signal outside the rinkhouse. ​ I powercycled the router, and it didn't come up.  I got a ladder to take a look at the router, and the LEDs weren'​t on.  I took the router down and plugged it directly into the powersupply and the lights came on.  So I think the problem is one of: The mesh network at DGP went down a couple of days ago.  I emailed staff to ask them to powercycle the rinkhouse router, but the network didn't come back up, so I went by to take a look.  There was no signal outside the rinkhouse. ​ I powercycled the router, and it didn't come up.  I got a ladder to take a look at the router, and the LEDs weren'​t on.  I took the router down and plugged it directly into the powersupply and the lights came on.  So I think the problem is one of:
