AaronJohnson example > can you run captive portal on it? DatNguyen speakeasy allows setup of public nodes LonnieWormley hold up let's finish agenda items first then technical ops later, requirements specifications, DarrinEden leads this item '''2. Requirements specification and compare existing distros''' LonnieWormley soekris hardware can run a captive portal in the access point, all in one hardware, essentially 486+linux+radio card+runs host ip, possibly going with minipci or pcmcia (some previous discussion on listserv) LucasSheehan he hears the consensus is for pcmcia, pcmcia cards are lower in cost LonnieWormley discussing hardware model 4521 AaronJohnson model 4521 includes two pcmcia slots, minipci and compact flash, additional specs look on soekris site DonPark why don't we use external access points? LonnieWormley Urban is an example of business that already have an access point connected directly to their DSL modem. There is no computer involved so there needs to be a solution provided that allows them to use their access point and PTP captive portal page. AaronJohnson public and private channels can organize quality of service needs DonPark the maximum is 64 megs AaronJohnson clarification > up to 64 megs '''3. Soekris hardware''' LonnieWormley soekris.com StevenSchrodel does soekris allow for easier mass production? AaronJohnson enable people like coffee shops that don't have the time to learn LonnieWormley standardize on 4521 agreed, do we want 200 milliwatt cards? what's the recommended card? (open item) StevenSchrodel questions the board used in pioneer square, how many days before the next reboot? AaronJohnson we're not the only ones to use this configuration, what type of compact flash? like sandisk, flashed locally DatNguyen it is flashed via a prepared cd NatPowning we must inform people that assembly required, needs cf card-pigtail-wireless card-antenna, price list see hotspotpackage LonnieWormley all this stuff acquired from netgate DarrinEden recommends amazon and look for 10 dollar rebate '''4.
