All node type's except mesh have been deprecated.
In a future release we will remove them (and the associated code) to streamline the project.
It is recommended to use a dedicated purpose driven device for these modes in the future
When a node is first setup (unconfigured) the rf channel or when user presses reset button the wifi channel and bandwidth will be set to mesh default even if it does not match the current RF channel.
Create get_interface which will lookup in the current uci network config the realname for the logical interface name.
When the interface is not found it will fall back to a hard coded list.
Configure the UI to use the new get_interface function.
Since a large number of the BBHNDev team has decided to create firmware fully independent of the BBHN Project the decision has been made to rebrand the firmware to differentiate from the origional BBHN work.
We would like to thank all those whom have worked on the BBHN firmware over the years and all those who continue to work on the firmware under AREDN(TM).
Program went GPLv3 last year but license text was never added to files
Default text to give credit to David as he is listed in all commits and to reference the BBHN Austin team at the same time as they were part of the group of HAM's that started this project.
Required for 900mhz devices to be supported due to band size.
This can also be useful for allowing more devices to fit into the same amount of RF space as nodes may often not need full 20mhz wide channels.
2.4ghz while using standard BBHN SSID is restricted to 20mhz for compatibility.
ref BBHN->ticket:50
Made adjustmetns to code that calls wifi_txpoweroffset() to ensure we minimize the number of calls that spawn a shell.
Also adjust the setting of $wifi_txpower to handle the fact that iwinfo returns the known offset.
NOTE: This patch requires a kernel upgrade to fully work.
Adds new value wifi_country.
Country HX is being chosen for HAM band use.
Country selection is needed to help the device stay withing regulatory domain for worldwide use.
ref BBHN->ticket:29
The dtdlink interface is vlan 2 on eth0 and is used for linking two or more devices together.
This will allow for band-to-band repeaters, sector antenna setups, etc.
see BBHN->ticket:28
Includes band/channel mapping
Code to set default RF channel on first boot
Add many 5ghz Ubiquiti devices in a testing phase including:
NanoBeam M5 (Intl), NanoBridge M5, AirGrid M5 HP, AirGrid M5, NanoStation M5, NanoStation Loco M5, Bullet M5, Rocket M5
see BBHN->ticket:29
Button should only apply the change, not save it.
Save routine works fine already just need to remove the save commands from the apply box.
fixes BBHN->ticket:23
Refactor to create a central hash matrix that provides details on
devices.
The if else else else tree was going to get very messy based on
the realization that each device has custom attributes and the
need to provide diffrent settings for each unit.
Allows easier managment long term.
fixes BBHN->ticket:1
Units will show:
Yellow banner for devices we have not yet tested.
Red banner for devices we have confirmed do not work.
Relies on what Ubiquiti calls the board.sysid which is the
value of subsystem_device on the first PCI device.
Includes removing files that are provided by packages instead
of being embedded as binaries.
Changes made for UBNT hardware AND for newer base openwrt (Backfire)
