I'd left here by 1997 or so... and nearly all mention of it has vanished from the web.
http://www.thefreelibrary.com/DirectNET+Provides+Affordable+Wireless+Internet+Access+Services+For...-a019706113 We owned channel 13 and routed internet over it, with 14.4 modems later upgrading to 28.8.... worked pretty good in the lab! Not so much in the real world (you can only oversell so many subscriptions), and I think the object lesson we'd got that packets are paired never made it into many other subconciousnesses... Prior to that I'd co-founded icanect (1994, but archive.org doesn't go back that far) The web looked kind of different then: https://web.archive.org/web/19961106081231/http://www.icanect.net/ https://web.archive.org/web/19961106085334/http://www.icanect.net/info/about5.htm Back then I went around as mike, or johnny... I coped with the stress of running that operation - pre-ssh, pre-http 1.1, pre-nat, pre-dsl, linux 1.x... by blowing off steam with stuff like: http://everything2.com/title/System+Administration+-+the+movie ISDN was then the not-well-understood low latency and bleeding edge technology, and I still chortle at the joke about how hard it was to sell it back then in the story above. (all the stories therein are true, although they happened over 3 days time, not one) Ah... memories... _______________________________________________ Cerowrt-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cerowrt-devel
