Turn-key Mesh Routing Access Point

Posted by timothy on from the click-and-run dept.

IPSection writes "LocustWorld announces the release of MeshAP-05. This is a test release of a bootable CD which turns a single board computer or laptop into a mesh node and access point. Clients can sign on to the network, cells communicate to form a robust, dynamic, compressed and encrypted mesh network. This is a prototype release intended for the widest possible test. Feedback is encouraged." There are several interesting things on this site, actually -- check out the Swarm Chip.

      LOL!!! I love it when people misread something, and then post about it. Ha Ha! That's funny! I misread something, and then it was funny. Think about it! FUNNY - because it doesn't really say that. Am I the only one, or what? ROTFLMAO.

    Perhaps /. should warn those they link with PHP/mysql pages, or just wimpy servers, to up their threshhold for high traffic before making the post visible?

    Usually I let somebody else put this up and then scoff at them, but this time there was only 1 post about the article (yay slashdot) before it fried.

    I was going to post the google cache, but even this is loading slowly as heck for some reason?

    This isn't flamebait. It's good advice to anyone running a server that can't last six seconds before getting slashdotted.
