Presuming you've got a reasonable ISP. (You will, of course, be held accountable for anything that happens from behind your publicly-routed IP addrs.) You'd probably want to put a WEP key on the base station (not for encryption, just for authentication, since it doesn't so much work for encryption anyway), which you'd give out freely. Just so you know how many people are involved, at least. (Especially if you're pooling money for the connection.) > for the record though, I wouldn't mind setting one up (or allowing use of > my ricochet "network", for anyone who has time to set up STARnet). Also, fwiw, anyone who wants it can probably get an 802.11[B, if you're really close] signal in the vicinity of the Swarthmore R3 station off of my wireless hub, if you want it. (There's no WEP key now, but I'll notice if anyone's really leeching bandwidth and put one on.) If someone were interested in using my (crappy, low-range, so you probably aren't) base station as their real Internet access, I guess I'd sort of rather you get in touch with me and we work out something such that I pay Speakeasy more money and your kick back for some reasonable portion of that. I'd have no problem doing that (nor would Speakeasy). -- gabriel rosenkoetter gr@eclipsed.net Attachment:
