=== '''24Mb/5Mb''' currently via Comcast ===
== Network Security Disclaimer ==
* Comcast Cable (Only internet, no voice or tv service)
** $66.95 per month (After taxes COD at time of install is $169.21) - $3 modem rental per month
** No contract!
** Link speed is ~24Mbit down / ~5Mbit up. More testing during different times of the day would be useful.
** Wonderful quote from the service representative when asked about network filtering: "The network is filtered. Dynamic ips.'' Constantly flowing.'' Upgrading to static is possible through the business department."
** The direct line for the person who took the order is 1-925-349-3300 x644201
** Our confirmation number for this order is: 503691


=== Speakeasy DSL ===
''Please note that Noisebridge does not guarantee or provide a perfect secure experience in the space. Just like anywhere else in the world you're held responsible for your own safety and wellbeing. This also includes content you receive or transmit or provide through any mediums, such as through pen and paper, sound waves or any networks wired or wireless functioning in the space. Noisebridge is a volunteer run and operated space that provides you with infrastructure, which you use at your own risk.''
* Speakeasy DSL (On a dry pair - Ordered for the (415) 864 area)
** Service has been delivered and installed at 83c
** Modem acts as a bridge straight into Speakeasy and comes with 1 static IP, 4 more for $20 per month.
*** Currently 66.92.8.180
*** Additional IP added on Jan 26th (requires configuration on firewall) 66.92.8.123
** $105.95 per month - ($99.00 install fee, first month free, hardware included - Paid by Jake)
** Link speed: 6Mb down and 768k up
** 12 month contract (25 day trial period), $300 fee if canceled in contract but outside of stated trial period.
** 1 static ip included
** The direct line for the person (Michelle) who took the order is 1-877-240-4821
** In the future, we can upgrade the DSL to the following:
*** Kinda fast 8Mb down and 768k up. 149.95 per month. Hardware and install waved.
*** Super fast 10Mb and 1Mb up. 179.95 per month. Hardware and install waved.


=== Other uplink possibilities ===
See [[Security]] for tips on maintaining your own security.
* Local wifi link (TBD - no current ETA on install)
We need an antenna and a wifi access point that will uplink to our core switch (we need one of those too)


* Metro fiber
== Wired network ==
** [[User:Jof|jof]] called IPN for a rough estimate for construction of fiber to 83c. The sales representative's estimate would be between 90,000USD - 100,000USD for the initial buildout.
There are drops throughout the space. They are labeled with the corresponding number on the patch panel. Please don't destroy them (lol).


* Sonic.net ADSL2
== Local Network Address Information ==
We're on the waiting list for 18Mb/1Mb ADSL2
DHCP is offered automatically on the network. Currently the IP range is as follows:
  Sometime in the next year service will be available in San Francisco.


* WiMax
* IP Range: 10.21.0.1-10.21.1.254
Currently this hasn't been very seriously researched
* Gateway: 10.21.0.1
* Subnet: 255.255.'''254'''.0 (a "slash" /23)
* DNS: 10.21.0.1, 1.1.1.1


* SFLan
==Network Devices & Services==
* [[Music]]
We may have line of sight to a node if we can bounce off of a local building. This hasn't been seriously researched. We may want to try to get roof access for antennas and should talk to our very quiet neighbors.
* [[2D Paper Printer]]
* [[Infrastructure]]


I was contacted by Matt Peterson about connecting.  I would be happy to do a site survey to see if you can hit the SFLAN or City wirless deployment from the Valencia Gardens development.  That could get you 40Mb/s up and down. - Tim Pozar

=== Monkeybrains Wireless Link ===
We have a point-to-point wireless link to Monkeybrains on the roof, it's a microwave dish on the roof at the front of the building.


* Currently [[User:Matt|Matt]] has configured a Soekris net4801 with flashdist OpenBSD 4.4 build, no fancy GUI exists - just simple vi and a pf.conf config file.  The eventual plan is to ghetto load balance between the Comcast and Speakeasy circuits.

* [[User:Ioerror|Jake]] has donated a FON [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FON#La_Fonera_WiFi_Router La Fonera] router that has been liberated with a fresh DD-WRT install.

You are standing beneath Noisebridge's network rack on the wall in the Hackitorium.

You see a "Noisebridge has an open WiFi network" sign.

EXITS: Hackitorium, Roll up door

The open WiFi networks are free to all at Noisebridge. In most cases if you connect to the network Noisebridge your laptop/phone/device will have the best luck getting crystal clear wifi and roam between radio channels according to which provides the most reliable and fastest connection.

Free Public Wireless Networks

The WiFi and Internet provided is for public use. Like any public network, you should regard Noisebridge's as potentially hostile and take appropriate precautions. In order to not give the impression of providing false security, Noisebridge does not run any encrypted wifi networks.

The following wireless networks (SSIDs) are active:

  • Noisebridge Cap
    • No password
    • 802.11g/n/ac 2.4 and 5 gHz
    • This is a temporary SSID set up for use during the move until the long term equipment is set up.

Wired network

There are drops throughout the space. They are labeled with the corresponding number on the patch panel. Please don't destroy them (lol).

Local Network Address Information

DHCP is offered automatically on the network. Currently the IP range is as follows:

  • IP Range: 10.21.0.1-10.21.1.254

  • Subnet: 255.255.254.0 (a "slash" /23)
  • DNS: 10.21.0.1, 1.1.1.1

Network Devices & Services


We have a point-to-point wireless link to Monkeybrains on the roof, it's a microwave dish on the roof at the front of the building.

I want to help!

Noisebridge is run by volunteers, you're welcome to help but should get to know those helping first before touching/hacking the network gear. Try introducing yourself on the #rack channel in the Noisebridge Slack.

Router

Biketrailer is our humble router. It is an Ubiquiti Edgerouter (ER-4) box running EdgeOS, a fork of Vyatta (a Linux-based router distribution).

The machines currently provides

  * NAT
  * DHCPD
  * DNS (dnsmasq) - local TLD and recursive proxy

Access is via SSH with keys and a https web interface.

Access the router UI over https at 10.21.0.1.

The rack layout, subject to change
The rack layout, subject to change

There are two racks in the space, the main one on the first floor near the rolling door, and the secondary one on the second floor directly above the main one. They are small and up high to discourage people from messing with them or installing things in them. The internet works, please leave the boxes alone.

Can I install/setup boxes on Noisebridge's network?

Short answer

No.

Long answer

See Rack.
