I've got access to it along with Rick (our web guy; cc'd) and Bob. We just need to decide what type of content we want to put up there, and get it going. I'm certainly interested (along with many other people) in getting a network going.. I was planning on setting up a access point for external use at my house, but I sold the gear I was going to use (pair of Linksys WAP11's, and a few antennas) to a company owned by a friend of mine who needed a wireless link up in a hurry to replace a broken fiber, and cashflow's tight right now so I don't get to buy new stuff. :( 'Course, I do have a RG-1000 sitting in a box, so I could always just throw that in my attic with the internal antenna (or convince myself to fork out $100 for a cheap-o omni and a pigtail to connect to the internal NIC), and it'd probably cover a little bit around my house. :) -- Nate Carlson <natecars at real-time.com> | Phone : (952)943-8700 http://www.real-time.com | Fax : (952)943-8500
