Upcoming system maintenance (ER1 Replacement)
by Doug Kingston 27 Feb '24

27 Feb '24

Starting tomorrow around 10am, we will be attempting a major upgrade of the HamWAN network, replacing the existing edge router (ER1.seattle.hamwan.net) with a new implementation. There will likely be some network disruption, though we have taken steps to try and minimize this. The new router is built on RouterOS 7 and replaces 5 year old software on the existing router. Preparation for this has involved moving several tunnel connections to our new tunnel server (R2.westin.hamwan.net) I will be following up to this email with status tomorrow. During the maintenance I will be available on our IRC channel (#hamwan on libera.chat) or Google chat (dpk(a)randomnotes.org) -Doug-, KD7DK HamWAN Netops

Latest recommendation for Cat 5e/6 outdoor rated cable
by Steve Magnuson 08 Feb '24

08 Feb '24

I thought this information was at https://hamwan.org <https://hamwan.org/> somewhere but I can’t locate it. What make and model of Cat 5E/6 cable do you recommend for outdoor (exposed to sunlight) use? We’re looking at an outdoor run of no more than 200 feet to get to our dish/router. I’d appreciate recommendations for shielded RJ45 connectors, too. Thanks and 73, Steve Magnuson AG7GN

Suitable client for HamWAN?
by Carl Leon 31 Dec '23

31 Dec '23

Hello all, I have a Mikrotik panel that works as a HamWAN client, it is this specific model: https://mikrotik.com/product/RB911G-5HPnD-QRT Currently, the various vendors who we can purchase International versions from do not have that panel in stock, but do offer this panel: https://mikrotik.com/product/RB911G-5HPacD-QRT The product information available online for the second panel says it is 802.11 a/c and is backwards compatible with 802.11 a/n. I am not able to find any reference to it supporting nv2. Does anyone know if the .5HPacD-QRT panel (international version of course) can be used as a HamWAN client? Thank you, Carl Leon, N7KUW carl(a)n7kuw.com <mailto:carl@n7kuw.com>

New IP addresses for clients of S3.Haystack
by Doug Kingston 02 Dec '23

02 Dec '23

As part of the migration away from 44.24.240/20, I have move all clients of S3.Haystack to a new subnet (44.25.66.80/28). All clients active before I started appear reconnected and working with the exception of MonroeECC. I think Rob may need to take a look at that if it does not connect up again in the near future. Any static routes in place for subnets behind those clients were updated as well. -Doug- HamWAN Netops

This was the wireless subnet for S1.Haystack. Three existing static leases have been moved to an address in the new subnet and their host entries updated in DNS. The 2 static routes were also updated. Please report any anomalies to netops(a)hamwan.net. Regards, -Doug-
