Thanks for the posting. We need to keep in touch over this. I have a WiFi link for all our many machines. Kids all come back with their laptops and can just sit in the garden or conservatory and chat on messenger . I call it Sunnycroft.net. Reaches out to our neigbours fine! But we only have an ISDN line so not that fast when there are 6 of us using it!! In the future I would be happy to extend!! Proper mast, leased line..... It may only need a few of us to make it pay??? Feedback very welcomed. Especially if we have to wait 6months and even then many of us may be too far from the exchange!
