So interestingly enough, I tried to get my setup running a few weekends ago, and had zero luck. I tried it here from the house, and got zilch (even though somebody kindly ran a computerized prediction for me that said it should work). I saw zero signal. I finally got annoyed and threw the whole setup in the truck and drove to a park about half a mile from the Snohomish EOC (see photo below), and *still* couldn't connect (though I got a nice strong signal). Does my mac address have to be added to a table somewhere or something in order for me to connect?
If you look in the back of the truck, you can see precisely the same antenna setup that Tom is using laying on top of the spare tire (next to the stool). From the park, I was close enough I just propped the antenna up and did it that way. No need for the tripod (and the strange looks from other park-goers).
Anyway, I'd love to get this up and running, but it refuses to pass a single frame of data. And this after Bart ssh'd in and configured it personally.
Ideas?
