BTW, when IETF was here they had an outdoor phased array antenna to cover some areas outside the hotel, including Brit's Pub. Supposedly it worked failry well. The unit is quite spendy, but it sounded like it has a few AP's in it and gets something like 120deg coverage. I didn't have a chance to try it out, though. http://www.vivato.net/prod_tech_overview.html * Andy Warner <andyw at pobox.com> [031121 21:06]: > Matthew S.
