Re: [nznog] openwrt capable routers for NZ?
by Ray Taylor 16 Mar '15

16 Mar '15

I understand as its generic firmware, I assume there will be many different compatible hardware options. The big thing though is the voip needs to be capable which may reduce your compatibility list. The market in NZ has dramatically changed with computer stores selling less and less routers, and the home users just using the router issued free from their ISP. And to make it work for an ISP in a fibre world, it needs to have a built in voip ATA Software: - WAN/LAN bridge mode - uPNP - IPv4 / IPv6 - Programmable 0.0.0.0/0 or gateway address when lan + wan in bridge mode - voip must work when in bridge mode. Have had problems with zyxel and others having no gateway address breaking voip when in bridge mode - router must be accessible from behind another nat gateway via a port forward. Enabling WAN admin access doesn’t always make this work with many routers Hardware: - Price point of $40-$50 so we can issue them free with service - A higher priced, higher speed option would be good for fibre based services - 3dbi antenna, 18db tx power - 802.11n 2.4ghz option. We don’t see the need for ac for at least 3 years There was recently a project between geekzone and telecom to build a "standard router for NZ" which was designed to be the perfect one with all the features that the GZ community wanted, could be issued for free by telecom and was capable of being used for DSL and fibre. They got as far as taking bids for the project from companies like huawei and the likes. Most of the features that the GZ community were proposing I found to be useless as an isp supplied router, but it would be worth looking at the feature list. I think a bit of googling might be needed to get to the feature voting page in the forums - it may have been deleted.

I am looking for people willing to participate in the upcoming make-wifi-fast project. Along the way, we'll probably build a pretty good firmware for general use on some off-the-shelves piece of hardware, and it would be good to be able to test with your upcoming fiber deployment(s) as well as on the WISP sides of things. > > Please let me and jim gettys know if you are interested in helping out on this. > > -- > Dave Täht > Let's make wifi fast, less jittery and reliable again! > > https://plus.google.com/u/0/107942175615993706558/posts/TVX3o84jjmb > _______________________________________________ > NZNOG mailing list > NZNOG(a)list.waikato.ac.nz > http://list.waikato.ac.nz/mailman/listinfo/nznog > > -- Dave Täht Let's make wifi fast, less jittery and reliable again! https://plus.google.com/u/0/107942175615993706558/posts/TVX3o84jjmb

It's been a long day! I've sent the wrong URL twice. The urls to use are now: http://aidez.vu or http://help.vu Vanuatu is bilingual and we thought we should do the same! Forget about the flatnet one - I clearly can't remember it so why should you.

Vanuatu Update & Support
by Jonathan Brewer 15 Mar '15

15 Mar '15

Hi All, This morning I spoke with a friend from Vanuatu Government and to another who is CTO for Telsat Pacific, the largest TV operator & #2 ISP. Things are in pretty poor shape, but on the bright side: - Both cellular networks are fine in Port Vila - Internet and email from Telecom Vanuatu is working in Port Vila This makes life a lot easier for coordinating support - which will be needed: - Communication to remote islands is gone. It was all C-band satellite and those big dishes did not fare well. - Telsat lost four towers (that they know about) including their primary transmission site - though they expect to have some connectivity restored today or tomorrow. Vanuatu Government is going to nominate a central point of contact for offers of assistance relating to ICT. When that information is available and when they are ready for contact from you it will be posted here. Thanks to those who have already offered hardware and engineering resources - those offers have probably made the days of a few people in Vanuatu today. Thanks, Jon P.S. I'm in the wrong timezone for this (GMT -1) so it may not be me posting with an update.
