Quick Startup

To easiest way to run a BRN meshnode is to use a modified Netgear WGT634 Netgear router preloaded with the OpenWRT linux distribution. You can also use our OpenWRT image BRN Base Image:

wget http://sarwiki.informatik.hu-berlin.de/~mj/openwrt-wgt634u-2.6-squashfs-20061115.bin

Thereafter you need to download the BRN software package BRN package:

wget http://sarwiki.informatik.hu-berlin.de/~mj/berlinroofnet-20061115.ipk

Installing BRN is quite simple:

ipkg install berlinroofnet-20061115.ipk

Now reboot your BRN meshnode and enjoy ....
