Jen et al,
The problem with invisible is they are only interested in commercially viable villages, which unfortunately Freethorpe isnt. I have been to one of their meetings and what they do is put a leased line into a village and then setup a wireless network round the village, they seemed to be a bit unclear on the old security frount too, like talking about setting up a village server that all could access etc, this is not ideal as my missues (now with month old baby) runsa business from home..... hmmmm.
Regards,
M
BTW good to see the interest is there, maybe a ALUG meeting on it?? :o) pref at the UEA, or I could see if we could get the village hall here, bit of a travel prob thou i feel. :o|

I would like to make an appeal to all of you without broadband in the area, how would you feel about setting up a wireless wan (they are doing it all over the country and in other regions (Suffolk, Cambridge)).
Hi Michael, a company called Invisible Networks are setting up the wireless broadband around Cambridgeshire, I'm trying to get it in Burwell at the moment. The CA are supplying grants if you apply in the correct manner to bring down the installation fee. Perhaps IN will come to Norfolk if there is enough interest? Jen.
