Re: Open Source Router Firmware will be locked down by FCC ruling - 8 years ago
Just means we will all have to "roll our own" in the future. Maybe look for a bunch of new development boards with enhanced or expandable network capabilities maybe even via modular addition. Think Raspberry Pi, router edition. Dreamplug would be a perfect older example, if it had an updated processor, 5 router ports and mini pci e slot it would be a perfect candidate.

Re: Dual Wireless Antennas on a Pogoplug Pro V3 - 8 years ago
As a capstone to this thread, I did finally succeed in setting up this Pro as an OpenWRT wireless AP. Using the 15.01 rootfs, once I figured out the right kmods to load to enable the Atheros 300M wireless card I had installed and did some reading up on OpenWRT AP settings, the setup performs great. In fact it slightly out performs the consumer router in the house. Signal levels with the dualby LeggoMyEggo - Off-Topic
Re: HOWTO : NFS - 8 years ago
Perfect explanation Professor Bodhi ! Now I am enlightened :) So on average would running a Plug off of a NFS rootfs share hosted on a x86 system be faster than running that Plug off of a local USB drive? How does NFS compare to a Plug running off of a SATA drive (in the case of a Pro or Kirkwood device with SATA port)? Curious now.by LeggoMyEggo - Debian
Re: HOWTO : NFS - 8 years ago
Raises hand to ask stupid question.............. Um Mr. Professor, could you, er, um, elaborate on why you would want to use NFS for rootfs? I have a mix of V4 and V3 but don't feel all that confident I know too much. I hope it's not too much trouble. Staring at my notes on my desk, head hung in shame :(by LeggoMyEggo - Debian
Re: OpenWRT on Pogoplug Pro / V3 - Need Help Making U-boot Work - 8 years ago
Well dexter's prompting, it finally works! Just installed OpenWRT 15.01 on my dual antenna Pro with Atheros wifi card in the mpci-e slot and it now is an access point. Just had to load the kmods for ath9k and wpad and a little configuration changes (simple is the key) and I have an access point which has been my goal all along. Have the SATA port mod so that it can be a file server too.by LeggoMyEggo - uBoot

Re: PogoPlug Pro internal Power source for SATA port - 8 years ago
Confirming your guys hypothesis, the yellow and black motherboard leads in the V3 / Pro / P21 are 12 volts and you can get + 5 volts from any one of the corresponding USB power pins (see my G+ page pictures for adding an internal SSD to the Pro/Biz and pictures of my 5 volt tap). Heat is something to keep in mind. The power supply is only designed to power the motherboard and 4 instances oby LeggoMyEggo - Off-Topic
Re: pogo v3 (oxnas) enable ssh - 8 years ago
For what it's worth, the last time I tried to enable SSH on a new Pogoplug Pro at pogoplug.com, I was given the option to setup the wireless using the stock wireless card and firmware.. This option had disappeared for a while but it appeared it had been reinstated. Not sure if it's still the case.by LeggoMyEggo - Debian
Extracting a SATA connection from a Pogoplug V4 A3 - 8 years ago
Just posted on my G+ page the cables and adapter I purchased to extract a SATA line from the Pogoplug V4 A3.

Re: PogoPlug V3 / POGO-P21 vs. SATA - 8 years ago
All of my Pogoplug Biz's are white case with black shoe base. And they all have the Pro MB with SATA and mini pci e wireless. I don't ever recall seeing a E02 with a case with that color scheme. Re: Pogoplug Video - it's the only one with a case like E02 or Classic that DID NOT have a built-in power supply.

Re: FreePBX12 (IncrediblePBX) and Asterisk 13 on Pogoplug Pro V3 - 8 years ago
FYI, I tried the same scripts on the HP T5325 and they worked as well. Should work on the E02 but it might be too slow on V4/Mobile. Your rootfs needs to be Wheezy and you should still create a swap file. Believe it or not, the GUI performance on the Pro is better than on Kirkwood even though the Pro has less memory and "slower" CPU.
