This is pretty nifty. A HamWAN network, so, basically a network created by people independent of an ISP.

I always love how we computer types like to think we're such techno-ninja badasses. The ham radio community :-* is so far ahead of us with cool projects and tech that most of us aren't even close to being in the same league with these people. :Thmbsup: :Thmbsup:
