Interested in offering public internet access once I am certain that
it's legal. Currently DHCP assigns IPs from the 192.168.0.0/24 range
with no real useful access available. Will do more once I get an
external antenna.
Also interested in point-to-point linking to others with similar
goals, experimenting with Squid caching etc.
I have a /24 range of 'real' IPs which could be used for this
project.
Current equipment:
DWL-900AP+ access point
P133/32Mb running Win98 SE with Avaya Gold card (laptop)
P166/80Mb running FreeBSD [1] 4.7 with Avaya Gold card, and Netgear
PCI cradle.
UPDATE: Building a new house in Roxburgh Park, so I have put the
wireless stuff on hold until I move in mid-2004. Although I'll be in
the middle of a suburban estate there is one unusual feature of our
block of land: one side borders an easement owned by Melbourne Water,
which by law cannot be built upon. This means there is a 'channel' of
sorts (about the width of a two lane road) with a clear LOS from one
end to the other. I can see mountains clearly through the easement
(dandenong ranges?), so there is possible potential for a long
distance link.
