MAP
Your node is not appearing on this map? You will need to edit your
node details in LocFinder [15] and set your OSPF region to 8
(Eastern).
You can view a big map [16] or a huge map [17] that shows contours.

UPDATE
08 April 2004
Guys, I've now got a fully operational AP with LOS to nowhere (well,
just the local guide hall/Garie St. and park). Has anyone thought of
setting up tunnels through the internet? I've got a 10G cable plan but
only use 2 or 3 G a month so I could afford to run a few low speed
ipsec tunnels to other nodes.

Hi,
I'm Dan - I run NodeGMR [18] in Murrumbeena. I have a 12 metre mast
with an Omni and an AP powered by a 1 watt amp. I have done
netstumbling in Glen Iris, Ashburton and Ashwood along High St and can
pick up my own signal in these places. I can also pick myself up on
the hill near the corner of Ferntree Gully & Huntingdale Rds and from
the intersection of Dandenong Rd & Atkinson St, Oakleigh East.
I'm connected to the RGSouthern [19] cluster which is in turn
connected to NodeGHO [20] (Mt Dandenong) and NodeGDW [21] (Taylors
Lakes) So if you connect to me you will be connected to the whole
network - when GHO is running that is.
email me at evolute74_at_hotmail_dot_com if you're interested.

I've moved to Garie St. Blackburn which has LOS to nothing except the
neighbours, the local guide hall and the pine trees lining Box Hill
cemetry :-(
Will have the AP fired up permanently this week.
Now if we can find someone to host a node on the other side of
Middleborough Rd, say Sweetland Rd or Barcelona St which have LOS to
the Dandanongs we'd be in business.

Hi all, added myself as i'm getting close to ready - I'm in Surrey
Hills near corner of Mont Albert & Chatham rds. May have LOS to
Darren, but setup is still a work-in-progress.
Will update once equipment finished and i've had a better look from
the roof.

Hi all,
I'm just trying to update my node status. I have just moved, but am
still in Hawthorn. Basically no_fuss and myself have laptops and
enterasys cards in Hawthorn, I am on Tooronga Rd near John Gardiner,
and he is closer to Swinburne and Burwood Rd. We do not have clear
line of sight to each other, but we are really not far off becoming
operational, and so it would be good to see if there are any new
possibilities for hookup.

Hi Jeremy, I just added myself. I don't think I have LOS to anyone in
this group, but I'm pretty much halfway between Box Hill and Hawthorn
with (I think) LOS to Surrey Hills. I'm tooled up (AP, antennas,
dedicated linux router etc) but so far haven't found the time or
ladder to climb on the roof for a look.

Great.... we now have enough people to form a regional/working group.
I'll see what I can do about getting a mailing list arranged.

Hi, after emailing Jeremy, I added myself. I'm on the other side of
the crest south with a clear view south and southwest for a good
distance, blocked by Wattle Park East-ways, and North again is that
crest.

Jeremy, I just added myself. Although I am essentially in a hollow in
Hawthorn surrounded by trees, we might be able to get something to
work - distance is not great though. Importantly, I have an old
pentium with 2 interfaces .
I have assumed WGTemplate is not the right mail address?
-------------------------
BOX HILL AREA
I am Looking for people who may have line of site to me in Box Hill.
ROUTING
In the early stages assuming the problem hasn't been solved by the
time anything is setup, I would like to experiment with OSPF and
possibly other dynamic routing protocols. So if nodes in this area
would like to participate then please let me know. All that would be
required is say an old pentium with 2 or more interfaces running any
operating system with a suitable routing daemon. I can setup all the
software (using Linux in that case) if you like.
