Hi all,

I've started a new mailing list to discuss issues of relevance to long-distance wireless networking. The focus will of course be on open-spectrum equipment, such as 802.11X, various HF, VHF, packet radio solutions. There's a lot of people around the world building long-distance wireless links, and IMHO a forum is needed to bring this community of people together. Wherever they are, usually the goal is to take an internet connection where wires either aren't available or aren't good enough. Anything over over 5 km counts for me as long-haul wireless :-)

There's a broad spectrum of people who might be interested -- rural dwellers in the West (who can't get DSL and don't want to pay for VSAT...) -- people experimenting and testing the limits of the technology -- rural folk in developing countries, for whom wireless might be the only option. You may be surprised at how many different people are using this technology to achieve their connection to the net.

If you're interested, please subscribe with the form at:

and while you're at it, check out the links and send me ones I missed! at:
http://openict.net/projects/wireless-longhaul/

If you're on a members-only list that I'm not on (most of them ;-) please forward this to them. Thanks!

Simon
