Just registered for developer key for the XO. See if I could run XS-setup again with the XO unlock. Pity I have no way of flashing to the latest 12.1.0 build 21.
Without ejabberd running or http runnig at least I am able to support 10 XO via a external AP and a wired WAN from another USBEthernet. The power source for the external AP is powered by the XO USB and hence no external power supply is needed for it to server as a school server. That is cool. Will update on progress but I will be back to the XS7 for a coming deployment.
