FONjust released their 2nd WiFi Sharing router , subsidize , for $ 5 . communion ? ! Yea , remember ? FON is that company that lets you hop other FON user hotspots , in exchange for making your hotspot open air , too . Their new computer hardware , nickname La Fonera , which literally translated mean “ The Winged Mallard rainfly at Midnight . ” We wrote about it a few month ago , but they ’re available now .
fairly sweet . It ’s B and G compliant , It has separate SSID for other winding FON ronin , and one for private use , and I ’m take some sort of bandwidth throttling so the tourists do n’t soak up your river of torrential downloads . I desire . The router let ’s you customize the public login page with a visibility , making it a kind of myspace varlet in meatspace .
There are also plans where you may make money off your hotspot , instead of getting unlimited roaming privilege . The router is about thenar size , using 4 watts of major power sum , so I ’m not sure what kind of range you ’ll get out of it . But man , $ 5 bucks seems pretty respectable if you ’re in pauperism of an spare router , and do n’t listen sharing a morsel of bandwidth . Me ? I require every last bit for my last habits . Has anyone noticed the lack of many loose admittance points out there these days ? How about you ?
