Nationwide DSL provider Speakeasy has broken with most big ISPs by changing its terms of service to promote wireless networking. They've even gone so far as to encourage ad hoc, neighborhood wireless networks using their DSL circuits (www.speakeasy.net/press). Just to reinforce the point, Speakeasy currently is offering free 802.11a and 802.11b wireless hubs for new DSL customers. Looks like the offer ends on November 26th. You can get details at www.speakeasy.net [[BR]] --Nate (22 November 2002) |

---------------- Well what do you know, these wireless nodes all throughout the city are usefull. I just recived a call from a freind to look up some info on the net for him while I was driving down Sandy. So here I sit at Dan Richardson's node, I hopped on the net found the info and I will be back on the road shortly. Took about 5min of my time and saved me a trip back home. Thanks Dan and everyone else.[[BR]] |

| This is my first posting to this list. I'm sending you mail from Starbucks in Pioneer Square. I have to tell you it feels so strange using the internet in public. It just never happens. It's really cool! Mail, web, yahoo IM, AOL IM are all working just fine. Response is good. Feels like I'm at home. Linux (Mandrake 8.0), Dell wireless card (airo-4800) I don't have tools to measure signal strength. I started a download just to check speed. Seems to be around 67KB/sec. Not bad at all. Setup was really easy. No problems. My thanks to the people supplying the inernet connection, hardware and the will.[[BR]] | This is my first posting to this list.
