I think I might have posted this before either on here or on Irc. There is 
already a link between Geelong and Melbourne. Connect.com have a 45mbps link 
running on the 5.8gHz gear across the bay. If you think pop-ups are annoying 
over a 56k connection, you should see them over 45mbps!

Cheers,

Sam.
