N7IEI - Beacon Hill online
So managed to get the system up and running tonight. There will be some tinkering that is needed [My mast mounted USW-Flex doesnt want to power the dish with its current power source.. so some work to be done there], and I want to try and get a second link up and running to one of the other towers as well (assuming trees allow me). [cid:image002.png@01D568E6.0DF71100] I probably need to do a little bit of a better job aligning the dish, but 70dB SNR should be plenty. I am noticing though, that without data being passed my CCQ and rates drop way off… its been a long time since iv played with MT wifi gear, but I assume this is expected? Does anyone on the network want to test connection/ping to me? Current IP is 44.25.131.214 Question; I will want to get a static IP allocated here (one for the dish, and one for my router ideally)… and if I recall reading right Hamwan uses OSPF for internal routing.. Once I sort out my 44. Allocation I would love to get that advertised onto the network. Who do I talk to about those things 😉?

Jake, That’s a great signal and CCQ figures. Yes, it’s expected that they drop off when not in use. The modem backs off automatically if there’s not a need. With regards to a static IP/subnet, when you know what you need/want and things are stable, reach out to netops@hamwan.org <mailto:netops@hamwan.org> and one of the admins will help you out. The backbone does run OSPF, but we don’t have client connections participate directly in the backbone for security/reliability reasons. Thanks, Nigel

Thanks Nigel, will do. One follow on.. is there a public network diagram? I see the map on the sight, but it doesn’t really show what IP space is being used where and how its connected. I do full table routing on my network here– so when integrating this in (particularly without dynamic routing) I need to know what ranges hamwan is handling.. from AMPR I can see: 44.25.0.0 / 16 44.24.221.0 / 24 44.24.240.0 / 20 Is all that space accessible from Beacon Hill? Or is there “islands”?

Jake, Those are our primary ranges, and all are reachable from anywhere. We don’t have any “islands”. I will caution though that that list is not exhaustive, as we also have a number of other user subnets we announce via our OPP program. I’m not sure if you participate in AMPR’s tunnel mesh, but if not, or you don’t particularly care, 44/8 should all be reachable via HamWAN, which makes for a simple routing entry. Nigel
