<br>Now that I have my own place (and spare time!!) I'm setting up shop.<br>
<br>I'll initially be connecting through Node KBN (<a href="http://freenet.net.au" target="_blank">freenet.net.au</a>) which has a link setup accross the bay from Highton to ... I forget where off the top of my head.<br>
<br><br>But I'm also interested in configuring some more high-visibility sites in/around geelong area and trying to build up the wifi side of things and get more people on board and build up a big net.<br>
<br><br>The main thing I need is direction, what are some of things I'll need to consider first about organising high-visibility spots? (Assuming I can get in contact with the right people and get it happening) I have been talking to Mike Everest (node KBN) and he's suggested I approach melbourne wireless group for more information as one of things that is/will be needed is an incorporated body, which I am under the belief melb wireless already has.<br>
<br>So from here so far, what is needed? What would I need to do / organise etc. to try get some things rolling?<br>I'm looking at about 1-2 months at the most to trying to organise access to have look to setting up some high-visibility locations, I have some in mind but I'll approach that bridge when I past the first hurdle of getting all the initial knowledge first.<br>
Not so much how to / what to setup, but more so what to do/say/ask/etc. to convince those in relevant positions to give permission to use their site.<br><br><br>Looking forward to learning more!<br clear="all"><font color="#888888"><br>
