History
This section needs to be updated
The network at hackrva started out as a just a WRT54GL named "robot king" and a fall back AP named "robot queen". They had to be rebooted almost weekly due to the constant traffic and numerous DHCP problems. These devices ran out of address space very quickly.
Thus a beefier network needed to be created. A more reliable network was created with enterprise grade gear and, in a lot of ways, this network became the model of what is currently in place.
Many hands are involved in maintaining the network, running network cabling throughout the space and ensuring minimal downtime.
The equipment at the space is there to be used. If you would like access to a VM or would like to contribute to the maintenance of the infrastructure, please email [email protected]
