Re: On the subject of poles or trees...

[John C]

As an FYI, when I was working at Knology, we has a trial doing this same thing in Panama City.  They designed (or rigged) some weatherproof enclosures and put them on the telephone poles, etc.  I could get Ricky Luke (the CTO) to contact one of you and let you know how he did it.  I believe that these boxes were powered by the plant, so power would not be a problem.  The boxes had cable modems built in them and plugged into taps on the pole too.   He might want to work with you guys on somthing... I'll let you know.

In my National Exchange Club days, we tried to do a project that involved those poles. Their owner is not the city of Columbus, but instead Georgia Power (Warning: GP is rather difficult to negotiate with).

What about those plastic electric boxes similar to phone boxes? They
are the perfect size.

As for running a router in your car, how do you plan on powering it? I
hope not by your battery.

I run an inverter with psone 5 inch lcd modded and a way overpowered
computer with gps and a 200mw senao card : \ and have problems with the
inverter overloading due to voltage dropping too low coming from the
battery. I'm sure the problem will be solved when i get a less powerful
