This is a guide for turning the OpenMesh OM2P into a SOWN node.

Flashing with OpenWRT

A detailed guide on flashing the node is available on the OpenWRT wiki at:

 http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/openmesh/om2p

You should use the following tool to flash things.....

 svn co http://dev.cloudtrax.com/downloads/svn/ap51-flash/trunk/ ap51-flash
 cd ap51-flash
 make

Sown Setup

Generic instructions for this can be found here.

• Node box numbers in the 400-499 range should be used.

Sown Firmware Install

To Be Done

Boot Sequence Post-install

1. Bootloader - WAN + Power solid
2. Kernel loading - Power flashing fast
3. System loading - Power flashing slowly

LAN	Blue	Off - LAN connection disconnected Solid - LAN connection connected, no traffic Flashing - LAN connection connected, passing traffic
Wifi	Green, Orange, Red	Off - Wifi is not up Solid green - eduroam SSID is up Flashing orange - Wifi is being enabled/disabled Solid red - Unable to bring up the eduroam SSID
