Configuration Backup

I have not yet backed up the configuration for this. After I create a dedicated backup machine I'll stash a backup there.

Plans

  • I need to get a wall mount and put this on top of it to see if that provides better coverage. I've been looking at this for both this and ap02.
  • Maybe I'll install dd-wrt on it? This is possible according to here. Not sure if it's particularly worthwhile though.
