Hello! I'm looking for a tunnel to connect my home QTH to AREDN as I have no RF neighbors within range as of yet (the nearby ones seem to have been abandoned). I'm located in Douglasville GA (west of Atlanta) in Gridsquare EM73ps.
I have 2x Mikrotik LHG-XL-2 dishes on my roof - 1 pointed North and one pointed East (although they are needing some horizontal separation, which should happen over the next few weeks). I also have a Mikrotik HAP-AC-LITE /in/ my shack providing a WAN gateway and (intended to be) a tunnel gateway. And for debugging, I also gave a GL-INET GL-USB150.
I hope to encourage some fellow club mates and previous users in the area to get back on, but I would definitely like to get "on-net" via tunnel in the short-term until we can get a stable link to the rest of the net up via RF.
Thanks and 73, AF4H

Don, I'm in a similar situation in south florida. I connected via a tunnel with Chuck, NC8Q. I believe he is in the Dayton area. Tunnel has been working great, I even have an IP Phone to talk with the other members of that Mesh.
I use a MikroTik hAP lite.
Let me know if you would like to connect with me, I bet Chuck will offer as well, he would be a safer bet.

Thanks Chuck for the info! I am looking forward to doing some show-and-telling to local-area operators.
