WiFi Teach-In (Part 1)
http://eyebeam.org/events/wifi-teach-in-part-1

Event Type: workshop
Date: 04/18/2009 3:00pm - 6:00pm
Venue: Eyebeam
Who: Hans-Christoph Steiner, Jeff Crouse, Steve Lambert, Michael  
Mandiberg

If everyone took the passwords off their wifi, we'd have a free,  
citywide wireless network. Sound like a good idea? Then help us make  
it happen!

Eyebeam's Open Cultures Research Group will be running a two-part  
workshop in which participants will be trained on how to open up a  
wifi network so that it is free, accessible, and secure for others to  
use without making it slow for the owner. Participants will also work  
together on developing a "script" for spreading the knowledge in order  
to convert skeptical friends, family, and neighbors into open wireless  
ambassadors.

Bring your laptop and your wifi router, and we'll show you how to set  
up your own secure open wireless network!
