RE: wireless woes in the triangle and beyond!

Pringles Potato chips tubes will work as well. That way you can have
a snack while you do some driveby dialing.

Subject: RE: wireless woes in the triangle and beyond!

I have a buddy of mine in the UK who uses rogue AP's to access the net for
free. He uses this thing he calls a "cantenna" (essentially he cracks open
the card and wires it to a metal milk carton) to boost the signal and range
so that he can hit any of a number of APs in the area. Swears by it as the
"only way to access the net"...
