[LUG] Broadband in the South Hams

[Bill Noyce <main@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mart,

I saw your post on The Devon LUG, and just wanted to let you know what
has been happenning in Kingsbridge.

A team of Kingsbridge Techies have been experimenting with 802.11b
wireless, as a last mile link up solution. Salcombe had been looked at
as a possible expantion of the work being concidered for Kingsbridge.

There is a possibility that the Kingsbridge exchange will get a kind of
"mini ADSL unit" sometimes called a pizzabox. It's a 16 port ADLS unit.

Even if that doesn't happen, work is underway to make a router that can
send high throughput data up a satelitte link and low latency traffic
through an ISDN. and then share this combo connection out to anyone
interested in the scheme.

Laters,

Bill.
