Hello All, I currently live two blocks south of NodeKentonStation and was wondering if it would be possible to extend this nodes signal to reach my house. There is currently an unused dish on my roof (not sure about direct line of site) and a Linksys WRT54GL router (http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/Hardware/Linksys/WRT54GL) available for use. We do not have high speed internet access in the house so my thought was that we could amplify the pre-existing signal / connection from Kenton Station for use on my block. I'm not sure if this configuration makes sense or is the best approach. I'm a bit of a newbie with regards to mesh networking but am ready and willing to learn and assist in any way to make this configuration possible. Any info / feedback you could provide would be great. I'm a long time fan/user of the PTP and really appreciate everything the group has done for Portland.
