Just enabled the wireless on my laptop and Dell PDA and I'm sitting here in the living room watching AutoRox and surfing the internet on my laptop. Now, for the rub. I don't have a wireless router in this house. I have no clue how I'm surfing the internet right now. Anyone have any clues? I can't believe there's a free wifi spot in my suburban neighborhood, but . . .
This is just too cool. It's actually faster than my home cable modem connection. What the heck? (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Now to see if my PDA can do the same thing since it has wireless too. |

Which reminds me, I need to probably make ours a little more secure. But then, my one neighbour has no computer, the other runs his wireless ISP from his house (radio based- he has a huge radio mast in the back yard). I doubt the neighbour across the street can see ours, since I hardly see it in the garage. I guess that is an advantage of living in the country!
