2/28    Does anyone know anything about how to create a nonprofit local
        802.11 ISP? Basically, I want to know what types of antennas would
        be good to provide a good range. I don't want to make money off of
        this, just provide a service, charge like $10/mo. There's a *lot*
        of info on the web, I was just wondering if anyone has already gone
        through and filtered the info...
        \_ O'Reilly's Wireless Hacks may have some useful info.
        \_ I'm trying to do this myself, and am at a similar phase.  Drop
           me an email.  Also, where are you trying to do this?  If you're
           in the bay area, then you're in luck.  Many others have similar
           plans, and are working to make it happen. -dans
        \_ can you guys give me some pointers?  thanks  -kngharv
            \_ email me. -dans
        \_ I just give it up to my neighbors. --WiFi slut

4/25    I have an Airport Express.  is there some way to let computer
        1 ping computer 2?  both computers are connected to wireless network
        successfully.  I can get to internet on both of them.  I just can't
        ping each other.  weird.  maybe they think that's a feature?
        \_ Sounds like your router is enforcing client isolation. If you can't
           change the setting on the router you're probably SOL.

12/15   ausman, maybe this can help form your views on net neutrality:

        if you're bored, skip down to the iFilm example.
        \_ jim: consider the case of a private electrical utility:
           do you believe in "current neurality"? i agree if say GOOG

11/11   Dumb question. My apartment has a bunch of inter-computer file
        exchange going on. Should I get a switch instead of a router to
        minimize traffic? Does it really make a difference? Let's say
        two computers exchanging info with each other are on the switch
        and the switch is connected to the router. The router will never
        know about the transfer between the two computers right?

6/6     Now that 3g wireless speeds are getting useable and phones are
        coming out that have built in wifi are there any phones that
        can be used as wireless wifi access point?  -aspo

5/31    I have a slow wireless router and slow fileserver on my network.
        Is there a video or media player (windows or unix) that is smart
        about caching content while playing it?  I would like to be able
        to hit play on a file from a file share, wait for it to catch
        up for a while because my connection is so slow, walk away for
        a while and come back and view my movie with no annoying skips. thanks.
