Hi Ulf, We are using the (OpenWRt-based, with OLSR) ROBIN firmware available from open-mesh.com ron all 2.4GHz devices. We do this since the OM dashboard is really handy The access points are Open Mesh OM1Ps, a couple Ubiquiti Bullet2HPs, a Nanostation2, and a large smattering of Engenuis EOC-1650 and EOC-2160 for cost reasons.
There are about 4 active nodes right now, out of 49 provisioned. Most nodes just use the integrated antenna or 7dB dipoles, although there are now a couple cantennas in place. https://dashboard.open-mesh.com/overview2.php?id=wasabinet Pictures: http://picasaweb.google.com/wasabinetsupport/WasabiNetInstallation http://picasaweb.google.com/wasabinetsupport/WasabiNetOnYourRooftop I am happy to hear that reflashing the small Ubiquitis is getting easier. I've actually had some limited success doing on-the-fly firmware upgrades on the Bullet2HP with the ROBIN firmware, tho I have to SSH into the device and trigger an upgrade manually.
