AREDN Tidbits...
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýSome AREDN-related tidbit. The AREDN World Map is updated four times per day:? 0200, 0800, 1400, and 2000 UTC. If you're going to run a supernode, make sure it's wired to the network; it needs to have a? solid connection 24x7. AREDN is now recommending the OpenWRT One for use as a supernode,
superseding the ac2.? On Amazon, it's sold as the "MiiElAOD Banana
Pi OpenWrtOne Router", currently for $105, or the? "WayPonDEV
Banana Pi WiFi 6 OpenWrt One Router Board " for $119.? .? While
that's more than an ac2 would cost at $78, the OpenWrt One is
substantially more powerful, with more memory. As of this writing, only 4.3 percent of the nodes on the
supernode network are running a tiny build and won't be able to
run a Babel-enabled software.? Their breakdown:
(XW versions have more memory and are OK) Note: Bullets do come in an XW version, but they're not MIMO. They're on the Sunset list for that reason. Total - 124 (out of close to 3,000 nodes) When the
OLSR routing protocol is dropped from AREDN
sometime in the future, legacy tunnels will stop
working, as they can't support the Babel protocol.
Users have been advised to migrate from legacy
tunnels to Wireguard tunnels for some time. A
recent change to the code enables legacy tunnels
to be broken out from Wireguard tunnels in their
JSON file. Of those nodes that have picked up this
change, they report 17.5% legacy tunnels, 82.5%
Wireguard tunnels. Not too shabby!
