Can someone clarify this?
Also there seems to be some kind of filtering/traffic throttling/firewall/switch located between sflan.org and the Internet.
You can do some research for yourself and figure out the network topology with tracert (on windows).
try:
tracert sflanXX.sflan.org
where XX = the node number you want to reach.
E.g:
tracert sflan7.sflan.org
tracert sflan39.sflan.org

I'm beginning to suspect the same (re: routing) and I fear that'll cause serious issues (besides being kind of wasteful of IPs) and lack of flexibility. . . . but no one actually answers these questions, so how can I know?
I'm beginning to suspect - and again, I mean no disrespect to the great efforts made by the SFLAN folks, and I know they're busy -- but this lack of motion, lack of response, lack of evident planning is costing SF its chances at developing a wireless community network. Enough of the really smart people are bound up in SFLAN doing good but intermittent work that -- well, has anyone seriously looked at Seattles' site? It's fantastic. Tons of information, plans, activity. . . . and there's no reason SF shouldn't do as well.
Instead, this area is moribund. There is no real technical info (the 'priesthood' model rather than the 'community' model) out there, and SFLAN hosts boast 2-3 clients a day. There's no means of discussion, and the great folks who put this together seem to have vanished from the face of the planet.
It would be nice if SFLAN either started answering these posts, or opened up their infrastructure enough to allow others to continue this work.

no, if I were going to invest the effort, I'd start by contacting SFLAN nodes and detailing my struggle to get SFLAN involved and see if they could maybe encourage them to start being active again.
Community projects are touch-and-go anyway. The amount of energy spoiler gone to a moribund but undead project could be a killer. We _are_ pressing ahead with another community group, one based on open standards and public info, but I'd rather we were all one big, happy, well-routed, family.

Compare, again, with Seattle. Or alameda, from what I can tell!
