We've talked about all sorts of way to increase the distance of your wireless access, from supplementing your wireless with a bluetooth bridge, to building or buying cardboard antennas to extend your reach by a yard or two. But how about 40 miles?!?! A post over engadget today is talking about a new WiFi bouncing "droid" that is made using a Sharp Zaurus and a 100 milliwat Sanio Wireless card, some wires and a kleenex box that will produce the ultimate wardriving experience. " The idea is that you surreptitiously drop this thing off in an area with a WiFi network that you can’t access and it sends a 900 MHz signal via a serial port transceiver to pass on the network. With a good antenna this means you can get online from as far as 40 miles away, though with the antenna shown you should be able to get about a mile or so of sneaky wireless access. A lithium battery should power this thing for up to four hours or so. "
Anyone here think they'd want to undertake this project?
