Link/note dump (a.k.a. I have too many tabs open and I want my ram back):

• I've set up a server on digitalocean that I was planning on using as the gateway server.
• The router I got, recommended by Pjodd https://wiki.pjodd.se/mediawiki/index.php/Bygg_ut_v%C3%A5rt_n%C3%A4t#TL-MR3020
• OpenWRT installation instructions for it https://openwrt.org/toh/hwdata/tp-link/tp-link_tl-mr3020_v1 https://openwrt.org/toh/tp-link/tl-mr3020
• Pjodd's gateway installation instructions https://wiki.pjodd.se/mediawiki/index.php/Installera_en_ny_Gateway
• Those instructions are mostly taken from here (this is probably the one we should follow) https://www.freemesh.ie/wiki/index.php/Generic_Freemesh_Gateway
• Pjodd's ansible scripts https://github.com/pjodd/ansible
• My fork of their repo. I realized the scripts are pretty specific to Pjodd and that we should probably install manually the first few times, so no commits made here. But the name of the net is decided :P https://github.com/Powersource/delwi-fi-ansible
• Gluon, the OpenWRT-based thing that's going to run on the routers https://github.com/freifunk-gluon/gluon
• Gluon documentation https://gluon.readthedocs.io/en/v2017.1.x/
• Pjodd's gluon configuration https://github.com/pjodd/gluon-site

Talked to omni from pjodd at p2pö, he recommended maybe using https://libremesh.org/ instead.
