Port forwarding WAN to remote LAN help needed

Forums: 

On our mesh, we need to forward ports from a node with Internet access to a remote node on the mesh for an Echolink implementation. The node with Internet access is a Rocket M2 with fw 3.16.1.0 (as is the remote node) and is advertised as a mesh gateway. Both nodes are candidates for fw upgrades, if necessary.

I have read associated posts regarding "Port Forwarding from WAN to LAN on remote node" and "custom firewall handling." Building the files is pretty straightforward (assuming these posts are for AREDN and not LinkSys only).

3G performance?

Forums: 
We set up a 7.5 mile link on 3 GHz this weekend.  It's line of site between two hill  tops.  Frequency is 3440 and bandwidth is 20 MHz
Here are the metrics:
LQ/NLQ between 98 & 100% both directions.  SNR about 10 dB, both ends.
Because the link was so good, we dropped the power on each end down 3 dB.  That did improve the throughput some.  But the throughput is significantly lower than a similar 5 GHz link.  Using iperf we get 7.5 Mbits/second one direction, 6 Mbits/second the other.

Video stream security

Forums: 

Our local mesh team may have an opportunity to provide live video feeds for the Air Force Security Forces and Anti-Terrorist group at an upcoming air show. A question was raised as to how secure the video feeds were from eavesdropping. We will probably be on 2.4 GHz ch -2 and possibly on 3.4 GHz as well.

I understand it would be highly unlikely that the video feeds would be sniffed out, but really, if a tech savvy person was bent on eavesdropping, how hard would it be for them to do that without any prior knowledge of our setup?

360° coverage from tower

Forums: 
Greetings,

I've heard a lot of conjecture on the best way to put up a general purpose, 2.4 GHz Chan -2, 360° coverage node(s) on a tower. It's my feeling that 3 rockets mounted behind 3 120° sector antennas would be a good approach. Any other thoughts? Would it pose a problem if the sector antennas were mounted too close to each other? We might be able to space them out quite a bit, I was just curious about the minimum recommended spacing.

WRT54 DD-WRT Access

Forums: 

Wanted to repurpose a couple of WRT54 routers to give wireless access into a Nanostation so I don't have to run long CAT5 around a room (trip hazard, at the least).
I'm not a networking guru, but I have some experience (I can flash to DD-WRT!  Gotta count for something, right?  Haha)

Sanity check on 41km PTP link

Forums: 
Hi, New to the forum and we are planning our first connection. Hoping someone with actual experience can tell us if our basic strategy makes sense. We are going to set up a PTP link from mountaintop to mountain top, on repeater towers that are ~ 100ft high. The distance is 41km but there are no obstructions, not even trees, even within the 1st Fresnel zone. Equipment will be a NSM5 at each end.

Which Band?

Forums: 

I am looking to deploy some of these on top of a hill,

The 2.4 band has 1, 10MHz channel,
5.8 band has 4, 10MHz channels,
And 3.4 has 12, 10MHz (6, 20MHz) channels, that's an awful lot, is this true?

Yet actual use is the opposite of channel availability according to the map,
As far as cost its 5.8, 2.4 then 3.4 band.

Why so little interest in the 3.4GHz band?











 

LOS Calculator?

Forums: 
Can someone point us to an online site that can determine if two locations are line of sight to each other, taking the terrain in between them into account?

Thanks!

Stupid question: Aredn mesh fails but cell phones get thru trees and hills

Forums: 
I have a stupid question.  In NNJ we have lots of trouble setting up links because of the rolling hills and trees around my QTH.  900MHz and 2.4GHz.  But cell phones use frequencies between and around these, and cellphones seem to get thru.  Maybe the modulation schemes are much different?  Echo correction that copes with tons of reflections?

Network Integration

Forums: 

Ok, time for another one of my super crazy involved questions. I am working on integrating my two networks. My home network is on a class B 172.x.x.x network. I have a separate class C network 192.168.x.x setup for the MESH network operations. I have a static route pointing the Class A 10.0.0.0/8 network to a node in the 192.168.x.x network. I can ping both the 192.168.x.x address of that node and its 10.x.x.x addresses as well. I can't get any further than that in terms of pinging the IP address of another node I have setup.
