I actually did the WtWW thing once. I wanted to connect my in home LAN to my
next door neighbor's LAN, so I took a cable and threw it out the window. He
pulled it into his house and popped it in his hub. We meant to have the link
up only for a day or two, but we got about 4 feet of snow that night. The
line stayed in place all winter long.
It made for great fun - we had neighbor to neighbor hacking wars for months.
Not to mention the Quake server... Ahhh the good old days!
