Making your Powerbook a Wi-Fi access point

Paul Westbrook | 28 October, 2005 21:31

The MAKE: Blog has a post that describes the steps to make a Powerbook running Mac OS X  into a 802.11 access point.  I haven't tried this is a while.  Last time that I did I wasn't able to get the DHCP server to hand out ip addresses.

Large transmission tower

Tall TowerThis is pretty cool.  In Chicago, there is a proposal to build a 2000 ft tower to broadcast radio signals such as HDTV.  This would allow an unobstructed view for these signals for quite a range.

I would love it if something like this was done in the San Francisco Bay area, even though this would never happen.

More Vonage and TiVo

Paul Westbrook | 28 October, 2005 19:29

I have been having a difficult time to get my HD10-250 to make phone calls over the Vonage line.  The tips that I described before didn't seem to work.

I found this page that did have a tip that works for me.  This is the configuration that I use to dial:

Dial In Number: 1-212-277-3895
Call waiting: "*70,"
Dial Prefix: "*99,12122773895,,,,"
Tone/Pulse: Tone
Phone Detection: Off
Dial Tone Detection: Off
