Pretoria-Gardens / Moot Area

Hi Guys,

Just some info on the Pretoria-Gardens in the Moot.
We are more or less 3 people looking at covering this area in the next few weeks and I myself would like to know in this area if there are some more intersted people so we could plan you guys in before the big start. So contact me directly on [email protected] for any info in this area or even interst you might have. I will inform you of possiblities and can you guys mapped.

To the rest of you guys...Great job guys we are really building this network at lightspeed. And YES RB133 sold out but av. in 1 week leadtime..
 
Lynnwood highsite upgrades happening this month, another 5.8ghz 90 degree sector and a dedicated 5.8ghz grid to the Mooikloof highsite going up :)

Depends on how much you willing to spend. Could range from R1000 - R3000.
Also your distance from the AP? ( will determine if you need a high or low gain antenna).
What frequency is the highsite running on, if it does only have one frequency range operating.
 
hxc87x you should go on their irc channel @ irc.ptawug.co.za join #ptawug and speak to the guys there, they a very helpful and have been doing it for a while.

I installed my kit this weekend and the guys helped me with the setup and routing. Just chat with the guys they will be able to answer all your questions. I hope to see you in the the channel soon.

Thanks again guys for all the help and patients you had with all my questions, I really appreciate all you've done so far.......don't think I'm not going to stop asking..........
:D
 
We had very succesfull WUGmeet last night!!

PTAWUG's growth is amazing!!

One thing though, people did comment about how easy it is and should be for ppl who really know nothing about wifi or IT for that matter to connect!!!

With all the help and IRC etc. anyone can connect.... 2 more High sites are about to be completed adding more coverage.

Next big thing will propably be connecting the Tuks Res to our network!!
