 Going to try to build a repeater here to link to BHH and HVC. No local AP functionality (for now). 

 

-LOS looks good to HVC, can see the buiding it is no from the front yard. 

-Need to see how big a mast we need for the other way. There is a 3 story apartment block on the west bondary, be nice to be able to put the antenna on top of that...

-Two AP's each with a grid/Satelite dish antenna. 

-Thinking about using a smaller antenna for the link to HVC, perhaps a biquad and Minitar in the same box, small and unobtrusive. 

- 

-Firmware munged to allow ip forwarding between the two. Testing the standard firmware with a Minitar in client mode showed a single PC connected worked Ok when accessing what was at the other end of the link but when I put a network behind it nothing seemed to work. I know the kernel in the standard fw does not support IP forwarding, but it does set up a bridge. From comments on the Minitar forum this is supposed to work with a single PC only.
