Your site seems to be missing a fair bit of content.... Where can I get your mesh software?

This difference is, our "global organization" is FREE. www.nextechwireless.net >I would rather pay a small fee to have wireless everywhere, than have >wireless in only a couple spots for free. I would rather have it FREE, and not pay ANY fee to anyone (nor have it regulated by any one person). We already have about 89,000 nodes globally. It's not as easy as you may seem to think to start a "global co-op". We've developed special "mesh" software so users can connect to the network peer to peer, and transfer files, and the software aggregates the bandwidth of the network. So if there was a 1.5Mbps DSL connection, and 1.5Mbps Cable modem, and 1.5Mbps T-1 connection on the same network, it would aggregate the bandwidth, so you could download at 4.5Mbps. The software also handles bandwidth throttling as well. It doesn't make sense to start another organization, and try to create "another" (incompatible) global network. Instead of trying to start yet ANOTHER wireless group, why not join our efforts? Please let me know where you are located (what state/country), and if you are interested, I can make you a regional contact/manager of that area. There are no "centralized servers" or "commercial company". Everything is done peer to peer, and the authentication servers are of a gnutella type. It's all stuff that we're working on. Mark P.S. If anyone is interested in helping with the effort (either with development, or just as a local regional contact/manager) please send me an E-mail off-list with your skills, qualifications, and experience (and area/region in which you live). -- general wireless list, a bawug thing <http://www.bawug.org/> [un]subscribe: http://lists.bawug.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless -- general wireless list, a bawug thing <http://www.bawug.org/> [un]subscribe: http://lists.bawug.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless
