Doing the same thing here using ARDEN.NET firmware. Nice thing is that with that firmware the radios can be moved to the amateur radio licensed spectrum away from unlicensed spectrum that the WISP’s use thus avoiding interference.

Our amateur radio Wi-Fi group has been doing well, built out a few sites with donated Ubnt/MT gear, we are looking for a bit more - especially 5ghz radios - that can be gotten for just cost of shipping.

Still have a few of the Picostations left I think.

I've often wondered if we should donate some of our older gear to a project like this. ----- Original Message ----- From: Steve <mailto:li...@wavedirect.org> To: af <mailto:af@afmug.com> Sent: Sunday, November 19, 2017 10:16 AM Subject: [AFMUG] Inner City WISP In Detroit https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1B0u6nvcTsI This story looks familiar! I've seen and heard this story a dozen times from people at Wispapalooza but in rural settings. This happening inside a city. I know there are people in Chicago and other cities as well doing this, however this is a nice documentary. -- Steven Kenney Network Operations Manager WaveDirect Telecommunications http://www.wavedirect.net (519)737-WAVE (9283)
