Wireless Network for OSCON

I think we're going to have to scale down or original goals of connecting the entire hotel to the network. I think, however, connecting the main lobby won't be too bad. Also, if put equipment in the right place we can give the possibility of access to many balconies. With the right equipment in some of those rooms we can have pretty powerful nodes working for us as well.

So, if I can convince some folks to let me put their equipment outside, or in the ORA pavilion we'll be set.


wireless in the rooms

at least we can encourage people to bring their gateways and put them in their rooms. Then maybe other nearby attendants can use your $10/day internet connection for free. =)

That would work if the hotel didn't remove their network from all rooms.  :-\

Something about terrorists possibly using the hotel for bad electronic things.

That's why I'm trying to organize this in the first place.
