Configuration: Switch the camera to Ad-Hoc and configure a mesh compatible IP address/netmask combination. The fixed OLSR configuration of this device is for mesh networks using the olsr.org LQ/ETX and Fisheye routing extensions of the original OLSR protocol.

Telnet: Telnet access is active for the user / password combination configured with the web UI.

Manual configuration: Telnet into the box and change configuration values using "vi /etc/system.conf". Change any value in the web UI and click the [Apply] button to make your changes permanent.

Addons: Add a new section (e.g. [freifunk]) in /etc/system.conf and complete the wireless config by adding the values wl_rts, wl_frag and wl_txpwr.

Normally, the wl.o wireless driver is not loaded, if an ethernet connection is detected. Set additional variables manually to load both drivers: lan_ip_addr, lan_netmask and lan_broadcast. To have OLSR signaling on LAN also, add lan_olsr=1. If your network uses a fixed BSSID, you may use ff_bssid=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (all upcase, as in wl status to restart if the BSSID is wrong.
