Air-Stream Wireless have been regularly presenting at a number of community IT and other Amateur Radio events over the past few years with great success. Along with our regular monthly meetings we are often asked two common questions.
“What sort of equipment do I need to get connected?”
“What do I need to setup my own router for others to connect to me?”
Nothing seems to do the job better that the real thing and although we have tried our best to provide examples at these events. It always seems difficult to pull together the best examples, as they often go into service at some stage.
So we are asking business and our members to help by donating samples. Clearly it doesn’t matter if they work or not as these will only be used for display purposes.
As an added incentive for businesses who donate we give that an opportunity to promote their company alongside these samples with added mention on our website and when ever a picture of the sample is used in articles or promotions.
Here is a list of the most popular items we are currently looking for, any help would be welcome.
Hardware:
- WRAP PCB or other dedicated router boards
- Mini PCI wireless cards
- MiniPCI to PCI cradles
- Ethernet Wireless Client/Bridge
- OpenWRT enabled wireless routers
- Waterproof enclosures
- Pigtails and connectors
Antennas:
- 2.4Ghz 8dbi Omni
- 2.4Ghz 12dbi Sector
- 2.4Ghz 15 to 25dbi Grid Dish
- 5.8Ghz 19 to 29dbi Grid Dish
