Re: Wireless Broadband - The Alternative



Feeed use the Locustworld box, you can download the software and roll
your own, or buy ready made boxes from them for around 250 notes each.
See www.locustworld.co.uk

If you choose to roll your own, be prepared to learn some Linux and
wrestle with the installation a bit (or is that just me?).  Bugger-all
in the way of documentation, although the software can be downloaded for
nowt.
