Preface
This describes one simple method of configuring your radio modem to connect to HamWAN. It will configure your radio to be used connected directly to a computer(s) without another internet connection. It will provide a provide DHCP address to computers connected over ethernet and will have a public 44.x.x.x address on the wireless side.
Configuration Steps
1. Upgrade your modem to the latest version of RouterOS
TODO: More information about how to to this without and internet connection
2. Reset the modem configuration
/system reset-configuration no-defaults=yes
3. Assign a name to your modem so that if can be identified on the network
/system identity
set name=VE7OGO
4. Secure your modem by assigning a password to the admin user account
/user set admin password=<password>
/console clear-history
5. Add additional user accounts to support monitoring and remote configuration
/user
add group=full name=va7dig password=<password>
add group=read name=monitoring password=<password>
/console clear-history
6. Install Keys for Remote Access TODO: Instructions 7. Enabled Recovery Mode (NetInstall)
/system routerboard settings set boot-device=try-ethernet-once-then-nand
8. Remote Logging We do not currently have remote logging
9. SNMP Monitoring
/snmp set enabled=yes contact="#HamWAN on irc.freenode.org"
/snmp community set name=hamwan addresses=44.135.216.0/23 read-access=yes write-access=no numbers=0
15. Disable Internal DNS Server
/ip dns
set allow-remote-requests=no
16. Configure the modem to use HamWAN Sector Channels
/interface wireless channels
add band=5ghz-onlyn comment="Cell sites radiate this at 0 degrees (north)" frequency=5920 list=HamWAN name=Sector1-5 width=5
add band=5ghz-onlyn comment="Cell sites radiate this at 120 degrees (south-east)" frequency=5900 list=HamWAN name=Sector2-5 width=5
add band=5ghz-onlyn comment="Cell sites radiate this at 240 degrees (south-west)" frequency=5880 list=HamWAN name=Sector3-5 width=5
add band=5ghz-onlyn comment="Cell sites radiate this at 0 degrees (north)" frequency=5920 list=HamWAN name=Sector1-10 width=10
add band=5ghz-onlyn comment="Cell sites radiate this at 120 degrees (south-east)" frequency=5900 list=HamWAN name=Sector2-10 width=10
add band=5ghz-onlyn comment="Cell sites radiate this at 240 degrees (south-west)" frequency=5880 list=HamWAN name=Sector3-10 width=10
17. Configure the modem to identify using your callsign
/interface wireless
set 0 radio-name="<CALLSIGN>" # For example, set 0 radio-name="AE7SJ/Monroe-Paine"
18. Configure your modems location. This allows it to show on our map
/snmp set location=LAT,LON
Replace LAT and LON with your coordinates in decimal
