Re: Ummmm

Yeah no doubt some unanswered questions.

The first that comes to my mind is why would I even consider doing it? Would my ISP pay me? Who is going to assume the legal responsibilities? Just to name a couple.

I doubt that really want to pay you to do it. Even if they did, it probably wouldn't be worth my time and the hassles. The whole point seems to be a low/no cost way to grow their network. And I sure as hell will not extend their network for free.

“The FON movement, as we call it, can achieve what 3G or EVDO has not -- a truly broadband wireless Internet everywhere.”

Except the 99% of land areas not covered by residential hotspots, most of which have a hard time providing a signal inside the house, let alone outside.

FON movement? More like bowel movement.

Johnbor you have stated the truth! The person who thought of this turkey must be the same one who is hawking BPL, and that mystery meat gaming console we hear about every once and awhile from Florida. He must think there are fools born everyday, which of course is true!!!!!!!

Waste of time.. Will never work...
They want you to turn your house wifi on so others can use it so that they can grow into a business based on your sweat!

Giving access to wifi is like giving the keys to your house or even sharing that computer network with everyone..
You pay the bill and we make the money..

Wonder which smart one thought of this? must be a millionaire!

THUMBS DOWN! never will work! Don't waste your time
