[Noisebridge-discuss] Internet was down, now back; FYI

[jim]

   at my house, i've given up on wi-fi. the access 
points regularly wedge and the neighbors manage to 
get on despite passwords enabled. 
<technobabble> 
   i have a gizmo that combines a router, wi-fi 
access point, and four-port switch in a single 
device. i'm willing to stick it down there. 
   one configuration you might consider is to use 
this with wi-fi disabled (or use some other 
non-wi-fi router) to connect to the DSL-internet 
and then connect the existing access point to the 
router to provide a subnet (for instance the 
primary router would support 192.168.1.0 and the 
access point supporting something like 192.168.2.0.
