This volume offers a case for building wireless networks on a local level. They are inexpensive and can be implemented and managed by the community using them, whether it's a school, neighbourhood, or a small business. This guide provides all the necessary information for planning a network, getting the necessary components and understanding protocols that you need to design and implement your network. The wireless Internet infrastructure, also known as Wi-Fi, is based on the 802.11b standard. The book covers Rob's experience with the Sebastopol Community Network, a multi-tiered network. It also details his experiences in building his first community network. This volume starts off with basic wireless concepts and essential network services, while later chapters focus on specific aspects of building your own wireless networks.

About the Author

Rob Flickenger is the sysadmin for the O'Reilly Network by day, and an all-around hack almost all of the time. He enjoys fiddling around with puzzles and making machines that make electrons dance. Entertained by the usual complement of obscure British sci-fi and humour, he has endless fun trying to comprehend the Nature of Human Existance and his Place in the Universe, all while living with multiple cats and battling a fierce addiction to Northern California coffee drinks. And he really believes that "infinite free bandwidth everywhere" is a design goal, not a fantasy.
