Default Wireless at Osh - laptop power?

Try this. I bought one last year from this guy. Works great.

I say, hoof it over to the hilton. They have wireless for their guests.
There is no sign on page, but I have no idea what their range is.


And someone will be sitting there with their laptop watching everything
streaming by in the ether. Google "ethereal" for more information. :-))
Beware of ARP cache poisoning, also.
Never use any program which transmits any of your passwords over an open
wireless network.



What about power for the laptop while camping by the plane. I don't think using an inverter through the aircraft battery
would be a good idea ;-)
