I am Bob KE7JL and I am also a new guy on the block, having seen the light in Auburn on Saturday.  I purchased a demo 5SHPN and antenna that Bart had with him.

Network land is at the very edge of my experience/knowledge so I will need help.  I learn best by trial and error and over the last few days I’ve done a lot of trials and made a lot of errors, however I have progressed to a point where I have to ask for help.

Current status:

· I have the 5SHPN and antenna on a tripod

· I have the 5SHPN connected to my computer and power

· I have Winbox on the computer

· I am able to connect to the modem using Winbox

· The software was v5.23

· Following  Network Engineering -> Client Node Configuration document:

o I downloaded RouterOS v6.7 from the internet and uploaded it to the modem

o The reboot was successful

o Per Step 2, I was able to give the modem an identity

o Per Step 3, I was able to assign an admin password

o Per Step 4, I was able to add the shared administrators.

o Per Step 5.1 &2, I was able to get the keys to the Files folder in the modem

o Steps 5.3 to 23 is where I hit the wall and need help.  These steps appear to define the task [in the small box] followed [in the box below] with what appears to be lines of code or command line instructions.  I do not know how to complete the tasks.

§ Examples:

5.3 [Import SSH keys and associate them with the right accounts]. How or where do I to that.

8. [Remote Logging]. Something. I have drilled down to some related windows in Winbox but they do not have a place to add code.

Anyhow that is where I am now and would appreciate any help I can get.

Also, where to I get a Passcode to register with HamWAM?

Thank you,
