Trying different Connection Types
School Server
(this requires being in a location close enough to a school server)
Actions

- If you don't want to reboot to connect, click on the Mesh Network Channel, which the school server is on, in the mesh view.
- Wait for the inner part of the circle to stop blinking, and the outer part to start connecting.
- This means it has connected to that portal point.
- To check your connection, go to terminal one. (ctrl alt mesh)
- At the login, type "root", and then type olpc-netstatus. (for newer build, type "olpc" instead of "root")
- Note whether the result of Telepathy is salut or gabble.
- Go to the mesh view (ctrl alt home and then mesh)
- Note the XO's you see. Are they laptops around you, or ones most likely beyond the reach of the laptops wi-fi.
- Do the same with a second or third laptop to ensure that it's in the same configuration.
Verify
- The laptop connects to the school server by default after reboot.
- (alternatively) The laptop connects to the school server if you click on its portal point in the mesh view.
- The result of running olpc-netstatus is:
- IP msh0 :
- 172.x.x.x(172.18.x.x when connected to the School server in OLPC offices)
- 192.168.x.x
- 10.x.x.x
- Config : School server
- Telepathy :
- salut (means failure to connect to a jabber server

- IP msh0 :
- If you're running salut, you only see laptops that are around you and also connected to the same server.
- If you're running gabble, you see laptops connected to the same jabber server.
- NOTE: laptops running gabble cannot see laptops running salut and vise-versa.
