[wsfii-discuss] Preflashed FOSS mesh router history ...

Wed Mar 18 17:06:21 UTC 2009

For those with Open-mesh nodes, and willing to test a bit more, contact
me off-line for directions on how to setup your Open-mesh network to use
the up-and-coming free service - described in the OM Roadmap:

http://www.open-mesh.com/activekb/questions/4/Open-Mesh+Roadmap

Highlights:

- Free! and zero-config for your open-mesh network. [A low annual fee
for those wishing to sell access with Paypal or Google Checkout].

- Full captive portal template customization.

- Give free access, with or without limitation, with a click of a
button.

- Authorize, with or without limitations, or block devices based on MAC
address.

- Manage users with or without access limitation.

- Set limitation (on free, paid, or user access) by capping time, data,
or bandwidth. 

Best regards,
David

PS: I agree, Antonio has done some very impressive work.
