The Wireless of Greater Bendigo

Recently I attended the tower in Long Gully for some overhauls. The Mikrotik Routerboard 433 got decommissioned and replaced by a Ubiquiti Bullet M2 for each sector and a Tenda Gigabit switch at the core. The same existing Ubiquiti Bullet M5 is in place as the backhaul back to Strathdale and a new Ubiquiti Nanobridge M5 PTP was installed to a home of enthusiasts in East Bendigo. A Ubiquiti Nanostation M2 was installed but not currently being used.

At the Strathdale end there has also been many changes. The core router has been replaced with a Mini-ITX Dual-core 1.6GHz Intel Atom machine running Mikrotik RouterOS.
