FON - A New Internet?

February 10th, 2006

I signed up for my FON account today, and am contemplating installing the router flash on the WRT at home. However, the nearest FON hot-spot is nearly 300 miles away in Alabama.

This has the potential to be huge - enormous. If everyone who had a WRT router at home installed this, we could cover a large amount of the US, at the very least - and more in densely populated areas of Europe, I’m sure.

If everyone’s connected wirelessly - what do we need backbones for, other than a “backup”?
