[Cu-wireless] Node hardware recommendations

[Paul King]

i've been lurking on your mailing list for quite some time waiting for an
opportunity to contribute in some way and keeping tabs on your progress.
do you have an online map that shows the current coverage of your network?
are you looking for more people to connect to the network?  if so, it
might be useful to have this map so that people could easily figure out
how to connect themselves. it might help you grow faster...if you are
ready.

i am in champaign and have patiently awaited for the network to extend my
way. if i knew how far i was from the nearest ap, i could begin to think
about other people i know who live between my house and your network that
could close the distance.

I could put a map up quite easily by scanning a city map into photoshop
and marking access station locations, etc. just an hour's work is all. let
me know if this would be useful to you.
