Hacienda Heights, CA | Re: Wonder How Long this will work? Wifi public networks are popping up everywhere. The cable/DSL monopolies should have acted a long time ago if they wanted to stop free wireless internet access. Just like the situation with P2P file sharing, the genies out of the bottle, and it's gonna be hard to put back. | |

Hacienda Heights, CA | Probably the best way to connect With all the volcanic activity and rough terrain on the big island, a wireless setup may be the only sensible and economical approach. Fiber is durable, but there is no way it can take a beating from lava flows. A lot of the nodes/RTs would be covered in volcanic rock too. | |

Glendale, AZ | Re: Probably the best way to connect Lava flows....heh. Last real eruption was 20+ years ago, and it was on only one small area. That was when the Black Sands Beach got swollowed up and disappeared from the universe.
The thought of surfing from my laptop while kicking back on the beach does sound quite nice.

Glendale, AZ | Re: Probably the best way to connect I was there last year. If you call a trickle into the ocean erupting, more power to you.
16 years is a long time to be worried about lava flows interrupting internet access.

Hacienda Heights, CA | Re: Probably the best way to connect Even if they are small eruptions, they are numerous and constant. Who wants to lay fiber in a landscape that is constantly changing? And having small rivers of lava could be worse than a huge lava flow for fiber links. At least in the latter case, you know that you have to start from scratch instead of finding a cut in a less than hospitable and tough to dig environment. | |

| Re: Probably the best way to connect Unfournately alot of this activity occured in the late
1980s and early 1990s thus there is no articles in
regard to this that I'm aware of online. I'm sure if
you do a search in Google, for example, Kalapana
or Royal Gardens, Hawaii or do a search on Kaimu the
black sand beach that was destroyed near Kalapana
you may find more information in regards to this. | |

Granite Quarry, NC | I may have missed it I just skimmed through the article before I leave, but where exactly is he connecting to the internet? Or has he built a wireless network to connect computer together? | |
|
| | WiFi I dunno, wireless is hard to beat. What does the ISP give a hell about if you set up a proxy where all the traffic goes through only one system? | |

| Re: WiFi Depends on how much traffic. If it gets too high, they'll investigate and pull your plug for violating the terms of the contract (no reselling the service) if you have that type of contract (most people do).

| | | | Re: WiFi Umm, he's not reselling the service. It's all free. So, no violation of their terms - unless the terms are setup like some firewall licenses that limit the # of IP devices connected. But I have yet to see those sort of terms from any ISP. | |

Southfield, MI | I dont think he is illegally reselling bandwidth. You should consider him as an ISP with bandwidth purchased so that he CAN resell it. Not as an end user with a fancy network illegally reselling bandwidth. | |
