[OT] Recommendation for Wi-Fi AP.
by Arun Khan 30 Jan '13

30 Jan '13

Greetings, I am looking for Wi-Fi AP that: 1. Is stable (does not require frequent reboot or power OFF/ON) 2. Supports 802.11 b/g/n 3. Supports up to WPA2-Enterprise (RADIUS auth) - a *must* 4. Has external Antenna Desirable - Accepts DD-WRT / OpenWRT images. Many list members may be using these Wi-Fi features in their own office / home and I would appreciate if you could share you experience. Please mention brand/model. PS - There are lot of brands claiming features and performance. Unfortunately, they can be verified only after one has purchased such an unit. In the past, I have used Linksys and Buffalo. Linksys has been OK but with internal antenna, range is suspect (at least in my experience). The Buffalo APs, on paper have great feature and few models do accept DD-WRT firmware. However, I have had heating issues - over a period of time the WLAN would disappear. The only way I could solve it was to power them OFF, let it cool and then power them ON. Buffalo was great in the RMA dept. but the brand new replacements had the same problem. TIA, -- Arun Khan

Ubuntu Global Jam Mumbai 2013 for Ubuntu Raring Ringtail
by Rigved Rakshit 26 Jan '13

26 Jan '13

Hi, Firstly, sorry for cross-posting but I do not know which list is currently being used by everyone. It's time for another Ubuntu Global Jam! This time, it is for the Ubuntu Raring Ringtail (13.04) cycle. Since this is too early for an official announcement, I will update this thread when the Ubuntu Loco website opens up for UGJ registration. Tentative Dates: 15 March 2012, 16 March 2012 and 17 March 2012 Venue: Directiplex, Andheri (W), Mumbai Time: 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on all the days There is nothing planned on these days as of yet. I am looking for suggestions. Come and fix bugs, test the new OS installation process, fix documentation etc. Specifically, I am hoping that we can fix Ubuntu bugs and forward the patches upstream. So, if any Debian Developers (or other upstream developers) are free at this time, please attend the event so we can get help with the same. Looking forward to a great Jam! Best Regards, Rigved
