That's interesting but wildly misrepresented. Picking up a signal is different from computing actual throughput.
There is a reason mesh networks have a mesh protocol and layer 1 RF built to handle multiple nodes. But the truth of the matter is that if you are close enough to one then you could get online and tunnel. The hand off would be atrocious and unreliable at best even with a new tunneling protocol. I wonder if they wrote custom software for the plotting or if they just entered data into a graphing utility. The modeling software is what would be interesting. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Alec Shaw Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2008 3:26 PM To: Provo Linux Users Group Mailing List Subject: Wi-Fi Cloud Hovers Over Salt Lake City Interesting article about Wi-Fi in SLC in IEEE Spectrum magazine. http://spectrum.ieee.org/feb08/6025 Alec /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */ No virus found in this incoming message.
