  3. What is HSMM-Mesh? • Mesh wireless network Using Router that have HSMM mesh software installed we create a network just for hams that is self healing the more routers the better.

  4. What does it have to do with Ham radio • Channel one of 802.11B/G wireless band is shared with the ham radio 2.4ghz band • Ham radio on the 2.4 ghzband allows us to use 100watts of power . Or 50dbm • FCC part 97 rules instead of part 15

  5. What do we use for hardware • We use different hardware one is the WRT54G linksys router. Can be found used for around $25.00 • We don’t need a computer to be connected to mesh with other routers. • You don’t need to be physically connected to the node to make changes. • You can connect to any other node that is connected from your node.

  6. What is HSMM-PI VPN • HSMM-PI is HSMM for Raspberry PI. • HSMM-PI VPN is VPN software • What is a VPN Virtual Private Network Raspberry PI is a small $35.00 open source PC that has no extra peripherals. VPN is a Virtual tunnel that allows you to connect networks thru the WEB (in our case)

  7. What does this mean? • By creating a VPN this allows us to connect up HSMM networks that would not be able to be connected up using the Wireless mesh. • This is done using $50.00 worth of parts on both sides of network and using the internet to connect up networks. Home Router Home Router Web

  8. Summit What should we do with HSMM-Mesh? • The goal of this summit is to take 20 min and brain storm on what we should set up on our HSMM-Mesh system.
