I agree with Carl. I sold a CPE to the County Sherrif for their comm
van. Gave them the SSIDs and WEP keys for my APs. Gave them the GPS
coordinates for the APs. Gave them IP Addresses as needed for
statically addressed POPs. Now in an emergency, if they can find one of
our APs, they are good to go.

I have been trying to make my community understand that a well built
rural wireless solution should be part of every County's emergency plan..
in our ham operator's case, a quick call or knowledge of encryption
used should get them on the network and to the necessary info and
comms req.

Actually, in an emergency a public safety organization should make
use of their emergency communication plan, which really shouldn't
rely on unlicensed spectrum, a consumer access point, and a best
effort internet connection.
