1 Project goals

This is the master project of all these WIFI link projects. All the other projects only served for acquiring according knowledge, but this time, we'll do the real thing: Set up a link over 30 kilometers. Since we intend to connect DB0MHB with a high performance link to the AMPR Amateur Packet Radio network, we want to hook MHB to the Deutsches Forschungsnetz over the Fachhochschule Regensburg.

2 Hardware

We have the same hardware on both sides:

  • 1 meter diameter parabolic dish from Ebay
  • Mikrotik RouterBoard 433
  • WLM54SAG MiniPCI WLAN Interface
  • R5H Mikrotik HighPower WLAN interface
  • Custom Frequency License to transmit within the Amateur Radio bands

Cost estimate:

  • dishes 60 Euro
  • Router hardware 430 Euro
  • several working hours

3 Software

Let me collect some links beforehand:
