Sharing EVDO with other computers at the airport…
I’m at the airport on my way to foo camp at O’Reilly and discovered something really neat- I have an EVDO card that I hacked up the drivers to work on a Powerbook 15″. I turned on my Airport card at the same time, turned on Internet sharing, checked off airport, turned on web sharing and now everyone with me can use my connect as a free Wifi hotspot, which is a better deal than the $10/day deal here. This likely isn’t news to old pros, but news to me. It’s a little like the stomp box in MAKE volume 03. This might also work with XP’s connection sharing, will try that later too. Link. Update: Second life on the parasite PC is doing great! Photo.
Looking for an affordable way to increase the range of your wireless network? Trying to reach dead spots inside or outside a home, sharing a signal with your neighbors, or maybe for a point-to-point link with another network? 
I didn’t get a chance to see this at DEFCON, but the video from Frank Keeney is now up. …video from the DEFCON WiFI Shootout event along with some photos and topographical information. It was great fun being there and watching the team set this record! [
Solar-powered Wi-Fi networks. Lumin’s first-generation product is the LightWave AP-1000 solar-powered access point, which comes in two models, single and dual. The Pearl Street deployment utilizes four dual units, each of which is located out of sight on a well-chosen rooftop, and features two hinged solar panels. 
This is a web-based interactive map of wardriving data. Wardrivers upload their findings, and we draw the data atop detailed street-level maps. This project was built using a variety of free or open source software packages. Be alert that you are anonymous. Thanks Drew! 
Awesome. WiGLE is an online database of Wireless Access Points (802.11A/B/G) that is contributed to by folks using Netstumbler, Kismet and other war driving tools. WiGLE has a web interface of its own as well as Java desktop client called JiGLE.
