Adelaide Wireless Network

The Adelaide Wireless Network is a spin-off of The Canberra Wireless Network. Like The Canberra Wireless network, The Adelaide Wireless Network is an effort by a bunch of Linux enthusiasts to build a high speed wireless network in some parts of Adelaide and its surrounding area's. If you are interested then I suggest that you start by looking at the mailing list archives and join the mailing list. By reading through the archives you'll get an idea of what progress has been made in the national effort. The Canberra Wireless Network home page is at http://www.air.net.au/ .

The Adelaide Wireless Network has not been active for some time, and we recomend checking out a more active local group called Air Stream who seem to be picking up interest in South Australia.

Please check back here for more information and updates on a national effort to co-ordinate wireless networks in Australia.

Linux SA User Group

So far, the Linux SA User Group hasn't been active in this project, but If you want to be involved in Linux SA , please visit their website for more details.

Helical antenna design

Jason Hecker from the original Canberra Wireless Network has an excellent document on his helical antenna design.

Network addressing and subdomains

We plan to have a registry of network addresses. Send mail to noc@cw.net.au to nominate your network address in the 10.x.x.x address space.

Names and subdomain delegations in the air.net.au domain may be obtained by contacting the Network Operations Centre

Network Use

This project is not intended to supply access to the internet, even though the network may be connected to the Internet at various points. The network will not be intended for commercial use. The network will be for resource sharing, and to help expand knowledge about Wide Area Networking.

Thanks

Thanks to Ben Elliston , the owner of the air.net.au domain for providing namespace under the air.net.au domain.
