Drinks and Chat Session Five

The North Manchester group are having another meeting at the "The Three Arrows"

Tuesday 22 July at 20:00.

If you have an interest in wireless networking, you are most welcome to attend.

If you don't know the form by now look down the Blog for the last four of these.

Follow the comments for a brief review :)

"The Three Arrows" is just off junction 19 of the M60.

(If you are coming around the M60 clockwise, the M60 mutates into the M62 at junction 18. If you miss the exit onto the M60 at junction 18 you wind up at Junction 19 on the M62, which is not the junction you want. The M60 leaves the M62 at junction 18 via a sliproad and roundabout, the junction 19 you want is the first junction on the M60 after that roundabout.)

For full directions to see the entries for previous meetings, earlier in this blog.

If you plan to come, tell the mailing list or message harry@shoka.net

Appologies from Ged, he failed to turn up, with the sorry excuse that he's the wrong side of the channel.

A frustrating evening. No contact was made with Harry's kit up on the hill, so no contact to the Internet made from the Arrows. This despite a fancy new tripod and a considerable selection of aerials.

Locally several systems attached to the access point, and even (gasp) were able to get a web page.

Note the "a" here as in singular. As a website it was not exactly enthralling.

We are so close to being able to network from the pub, but the final step continues to elude us.

Socially another good evening, though the conversation was not quite as "eclectic" as the last meeting, no worlds put to rights.
