Node JNV isn't up yet.



11th July 2008

Well at a recent Melb. Wire. meeting I picked up a 24db parabolic reflector antenna and a 14db vertical patch antenna. I also found on Ebay a badly advertised Diamond R100 (WL500g rebadged) router cheap. The main problems I face are antenna mounting. Will drop in some pictures soon.

Still gathering equipment and sorting out the best method for connection at either end. Being in a two storey house is good for height but not for distance between the head end and the network/pc end.



Can see across all of Beaconsfield to the North East. Can see Pakenham to the East. Don't think there is much to the South {/regexpicons/emoticons/emoticon-face7.png :-)} Looking West and North west, well that is interesting. Some houses visible and the main part of the Melbourne wireless network. Not sure how high a mast I will need.
