www.unwired.com.au seemed the be the most promising. However it was not available in my coverage area. incidentally..this recently caught my eye too. http://whirlpool.net.au/article.cfm/1332 a search for "wireless broadband sydney" will yield some more perhaps. Had done more detailed enquires on unwired, the connectivity seems sporadic but when connected speeds were as stated. > is Linux-friendly? (or OS agnostic, anyway) hmm.. the wireless desktop modems would not have a problem i guess, but the laptop cards? could not get any chipset related info, so its best to suspect it to be somewhat of a challenge. - Erle -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
