Is Northcliff going to be next ?
Would Northcliff and Dawnview be able to connect ? this would be great and give the community a boost as there is a growing interest.

We're looking into it.
Dawnview doesn't have LOS to Northcliff.. (Theres a big City in the way)
But we might be able to find a point somewhere in between that we can bounce through.

If you can organize space anywhere in Sandto City, it'd be a miracle, but yeah, that's a possibility.

I vote for North cliff hill. I live in Randburg and near the mnet buildings and I've got all the wireless equipment which i use to connect to my parents place about 1km away, just wish I knew htf to connect to this wireless net work jawug has got going.

They have got some website to add where your are and to add your node but where do I go from there? :confused: beside that website you need a manual to know wtf is going on :rolleyes:

when some one gets a chance can i get some info on the Jawug concept - what do i need to get set-up?
i pick up signal some distance from my flat - in dunvegan-edenvale with my ipaq pda can i connect?

thanks

Thanks to RichardP for providing an Antenna on Dawnview which will allow the "WildWestMesh" to merge with the Jawug Dawnview Mesh. Testing is underway and we hope to have a 23km link from Roodepoort to Dawnview within a couple of weeks. This should increase the size of the Jawug Mesh to about 24 or so nodes...

All equipment has been acquired, and some early testing has been performed. I am moving the location of the equipment over the weekend, for further tests, but I expect to have us linked by Sunday (Wife depending) ;)

Microwave links for cctv cameras

Hi there,

Please help me with the following. We want to link highspeed domes with the controlroom with microwave links. The camera and controlroom is about 1.5 - 3km apart from each other.

What do I need for such an aaplication? Hardware and software.

There will be a total of 6 highspeed domes.

Which companies can help? Do someone know a company called Ducknall/Dacknall that supply microwave links in JHB/CapeTown?

Thanks

Gawie
