transmitters Function same way as wireless routers
Practice Nodes
Description: Frame size 64-1580 bytes TCP/UDP
Size of available packets to send and receive
Running Tests at different speeds of mobility
Progress We learned how
to use HotView softwareMesh
Management Software
Able to set up virtual mesh nodes
We were able to ping two computers using mesh nodes
Streaming of Audio VideoLive Video
Tested strength of nodesDistance
Pinging led to:
What we learned?We learned how to: Physically connect two mesh nodes
Set up software in order to run nodes
Transfer data between to nodes
Ping nodes in order to confirm connectivity
Set up local IP addresses, gateways, and default gateways
Obstacles Spent a lot of time trying to
communicate with company
Hardware Failure
Data Loss
Disclaimer
Project is on going, therefore, the amount of progress was limited to time
