Well, well, well. Outside Cafe Nefeli on Euclid I now have a choice between three strong wireless signals. "SurfandSip"--the pay-for network; "AirBears"--the standard Berkeley service; and "EECS"--which I understand to be a venture of the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences. An embarrassment of riches.
"SurfandSip" requires passwords and accounts I don't have. Let's try EECS...

SurfandSip works very well and they usually have a relatively inexpensive yearly all you can eat price. They have a limited number of ports around the country though.
For $15.00 per month, I get unlimited data at about 128K from Sprint, using my Treo 600 as either browser, client, or modem. Sprint sucks, in fact, customer service wise, Sprint sucks a near perfect vacuum. Their service though and the Treo voice quality is terrific.
Instead of carrying my wifi card around, I just carry my treo and a data cable.

I'll be linking up there next year! I'm in the masters program at the Goldman School!
Posted by: GFW on June 21, 2004 04:41 PMI remember a walk down University in Palo Alto ('stealing the enemy's bandwidth,' I called it to my Cal-alum fiancee) in which I went to log into the T-Mobile hotspot at Starbucks, only to find FOUR additional networks available (three of which were open with no apparent authentication requirement).
Free Wi-Fi is better than free cigars...and easier to use in California.
Posted by: jon on June 21, 2004 06:22 PM*Surfandsip is decent, I believe it originates from Brewed Awakening across the street. Anyone can use it.
*AirBears is for most UCB affiliates. But you knew that, and obviously you should have access. Surprising that you should get AirBears at Nefeli though.
*EECS is not avail for regular undergrads.
