San Diego Wireless Users Group
Looks like there is a lot of mapping activity going on in San Diego. Is there a wireless users group? I've checked the web and Coputer Edge, but haven't found anything. Anyone interested in starting a group if one doesn't already exist?

We have also been getting a group together- but we want to put up free access points around San Diego..
Our site.. http://spoke-and-axle.com/sa/wireless.cfm It would be great to compare notes when we get things figured out. |

Just installed netstumbler.... wow!
travelling from downtown menlo park to the west side (so basically, from the starbucks on santa cruz ave to the starbucks on alameda de las pulgas), I found no less than 8 networks, (1 encrypted). And I was using a Silver card with no external antenna.... in fact - when I first installed netstumbler in my bedroom - i then picked up the laptop to carry it into the living room and I caught a signal from through the window - someone with an airport... turning off my overpowering linksys AP I was even assigned an IP by my mystery airport neighbor and was able to browse the web (legality? hrrmm - well considering i was *totally* passive - ie i would have not been able to tell if i was on my network or the neighbors if I had not been running netstumbler... I've seen the other threads on legalitly... tough call)anyways - the DNS suffix I was assigned by the mystery AP was stanford.edu... so i didn't stay on long - heh. JDM |
