Robin-Mesh (formerly ROBIN (ROuting Batman INside) is an FOSS mesh network project, deployed on top of OpenWrt, running on any Atheros AP51 routers and using the B.A.T.M.A.N. routing algorithm. It is an easy-to-use Open-Source firmware for small, widely available routers such as the Linksys WRT54G series, the Fonera and the Open-Mesh OM1P. Robin-Mesh allows users to spread a single Internet connection over a large area using meshing technologies. It is managed through a web-based "dashboard" which can set settings such as the SSID name (for the Public and Private WLANs), as well as provide advanced reporting and statistical information such as graphs, and logs. Robin-Mesh is based on top of the most recent Kamikaze release of the OpenWrt firmware. Features * Easy-to-use configuration through the dashboard * Minimal reboots - Very few configuration changes require a reboot. * DHCP server and DNS forwarder (using Dnsmasq). * Configuration of Static IP address's for connected clients * Port forwarding (useful for wirelessly connecting IP Cameras, Servers, etc.) * Easily see all wirelessly connected clients, their data usage, and their connection speeds (to help eliminate issues with coverage) * SSH accessible (using Dropbear). * Built on top of OpenWrt, most packages in OpenWrt can be added to Robin-Mesh * Set bandwidth limits, redirect URLs, and Splash Pages * Provide enterprise level authentication using CoovaChilli * Near real-time bandwidth graphing/statistics for bandwidth usage of clients * Access restrictions (block users, allow users, only allow specific users)
