Node Rijneke has been built

As art of the project "Free WiFi in Zoeterwoude", on October 25, 2012 the node "Rijneke" in Zoeterwoude has been built. This new and attractive node gives wifi coverage on the 'Rijneke Boulevard' in Zoeterwoude.

See the video of the building:

Node HMKerk upgraded

In October 2012 the node HMKerk (on the church in Hoogmade) has been upgraded to our IRIS concept.
According to that concept - standard nowadays - the heart of the node is an embedded system, and links are supplied by "nanostations", that realize the radio contact as well as the wifi contact between the nodes.

Node Juffermans completed

In the first phase of the construction of the node Juffermans (at Jachthaven Juffermans in Warmond) in August 2012, the antennas were mounted to the pole of the node (see a former news item).

Two of our volunteers have recently completed the construction of this node. The heart of the node (the box with the electronics) was placed and a dc cable was laid. It appeared that the dc cable had to be as long as 40 meters! Links have been realized to the nodes Lijtweg and SOM. An impression of the construction of the node can be seen in the video below.
