Please log in for more thread options Hi, Most probably the answer will be no, however... I've got this Cisco AP1310 and I was wondering if there is any linux distribution for this hardware like for example OperWRT. Thanks for any hints Bye | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Well,you're probably right... however since I have a couple of those toys I was wondering if I could do something like MIT's roofnet. I've just discovered this amazing project and since there are several linux implementation of this kind of routing protocols I was planning of reusing this cisco's hardware to build a mesh network. > --

I'm always right. Well, maybe usually right. >however since I have a couple of those
>toys I was wondering >if I could do something like MIT's roofnet. Dunno. Probably not because they use custom firmware. They seem to prefer Netgear WGT634u. http://pdos.csail.mit.edu/roofnet/doku.php?id=wgt634u I don't think your Cisco boxes will work with RoofNet (not sure). >I've just discovered this
>amazing project and since there are several linux implementation of >this kind of routing protocols I was planning of reusing this cisco's >hardware to build a mesh network. I have a bad attitude about mesh networks, but they're the current fashion rage in wireless. Far be it for me to suggest that they have problems. Some reading on Mesh from my bookmark pile: http://americas.locustworld.com http://www.moskaluk.com/papers.htm (links and papers) http://www.smallworks.com/archives/00000072.htm http://www.belairnetworks.com (2 or more radios is the right way to do mesh) http://wifinetnews.com/archives/003972.html http://dailywireless.org/modules.php?name=News&file=comments&sid=2750&tid=112&mode=&order=0&thold=0 -- Jeff Liebermann jeffl@comix.santa-cruz.ca.us 150 Felker St #D http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Santa Cruz CA 95060 http://802.11junk.com Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558 | ||||||||||||||||||||||
