<div class="moz-cite-prefix">In short, there are no fixed setup
instructions. Things are changing pretty rapidly, so we ask
anyone joining the network to hop on <a href="http://irc.freenode.org">irc.freenode.org</a> in channel
#HamWAN to get help in getting setup.<br>
<br>
Things will continue to change rapidly through the winter, and the
network admin folks will attempt to keep everyone connected and
updated with the changes we're making. This is part of the
benefit of having a shared-administration model on the client
routers: drastic network changes don't require people to DO STUFF
to stay connected.<br>
<br>
We'll provide a cell site @ the summer gathering so that anyone
interested in playing with getting their client connected can do
so. You'll also get to see the real hardware in person.<br>

<div>First, congratulations to the whole team on getting so much
done this summer! I'll be ordering my station on Monday. I'll
ask the obvious newbie question, how are the installation
instructions? </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Could we do a setup session at the Summer Gathering, so all I
have todo is mount and point the antenna?</div>

<div>Thanks</div>

<div dir="ltr">HamWAN's goal this summer was to deploy as many
sites as possible. Thanks to the help of a few dedicated
volunteers, three sites are now operational and ready to
route your packets. The next step is for you to get
connected!<br>
<br>
I have put a lot of time into developing coverage maps to
help you determine if your home or repeater site is within
the current coverage area. Nigel has developed a database of
current connections to HamWAN and signal surveys. This data
has all been integrated into a map on the home page, please
check it out:<br>

<br>
You can click each node to see its link status. Blue links
are currently online. Gray links are surveys completed with
a portable HamWAN client setup (grid antenna, tripod, modem,
and laptop). The current distance record for this setup is
101 miles (163 km). Way to go Bart--that's some serious 5.9
GHz DX!<br>
<br>
If it looks like you are in the coverage area (or not!),
please try to connect. We would like to collect as many data
points possible to verify signal strength and link quality.
A network is only as useful as its participants make it.<br>
