WLAN
Hi, nice to notice that the IETF WLAN is also working here at the Embassy Suites hotel, which is far (ab. 2 miles) away from the Sheraton... Is here a secret/uninformed access point or is the range of WLAN this awesome on this side of the world?-) BR, Teemu --- Teemu Rinta-aho[EMAIL PROTECTED] NomadicLab, Ericsson Research +358 9 299 3078 FIN-02420 Jorvas, Finland +358 40 562 3066 ---

I just wanted to know if there is an access point in the hotel or not. Teemu

That was nice service from Qualcomm, just too bad there was no information of the wireless coverage on the meeting web pages. ------- Teemu Rinta-aho[EMAIL PROTECTED] NomadicLab, Ericsson Research +358 9 299 3078 FIN-02420 Jorvas, Finland +358 40 562 3066 ---
