Re: Never makes it...

Try using the existing "hotzone" in downtown LB and you'll see what I'm talking about . Spotty coverage, slow speeds and packet loss. While these wifi networks can be used for checking email and other non-demanding tasks, they really aren't something you can use for everyday activities like downloading files and playing online games.

Last I checked, there are some wireless ISP options available in the LB area. If you're truly interested, you might want to check into them.

I could be wrong, but I do not believe those type of people are who they are targeting. I would expect they are targeting the web surfer and email checker and would suggest the others opt for the other services.
