If I get in the mood for some tech hacking, I am considering putting #OpenWRT on my old unused #Netgear #Orbi units.

When we moved into this house, the cable company installed Plume pods for the mesh wifi. I thought I would wait until they left and put my Orbis in but to my shock, I liked the Plumes.

Because this is a big house, even with three Plume pods there are dead spots. I'm trying to figure out how to get the most bang out of these old Orbis. I have one base station and two satellites. The Plumes are very smart about the ethernet ports. If you plug in an uplink, the pod becomes a repeater. If it has no uplink, the pod becomes a bridge adapter.

The RBW30 satellites have no Ethernet ports so I can't use them as bridges. I wonder if there is some mode they can go in to where they will participate with the Plume mesh. Can OpenWRT even do that? This is a big research topic on which I have a very shaky understanding. Netgear loves telling me how EOL this is so I lose nothing but farting around with them. It just remains to be seen if or how they can be useful.

Déjà 4 ans que ce projet a vu le jour avec mon ami Matthieu Kervevan AKA Jacques Cochise

Du Grand Ventron à l’Orbi il faut compter 2H30 de marche sur 10 KM avec un dénivelé positif de 345 M.
A l’arrivée une belle vue sur Ventron qui fait chaud au cœur.
C’est de cette ascension que Yann et Matthieu ont tiré le nom du groupe.
La musique n’a rien à voir avec cette randonnée épique effectuée quelques 30 ans plus tôt par le duo alors âgé de 11/12 ans.
Ici c’est Yann avec ses machines analogiques qui bidouille des drones , des nappes et des sons.
