The above photo is the access point at the National Convention Center. It is NOT the access point providing WiFi

I have it on good authority that the WiFi network at TechEd is awesome. I used it on Monday and it worked like a dream. It was put in by the good folks from Telstra.

But if you dont have a Laptop or PDA with WiFi, don't panic! There are 100s of computers throughout the center, forming CommNet

work, geek, announcement

The WiFi at Teched - is awful.

The IP addresses drop and change every 20 minutes.

It is hit-or-miss to get a connectiong.

You need to rescan each time you change rooms (most times anyway).

The speed (meant to be 10mb) is awful - too many geeks I guess.

Not happy Jan.

Not a good add for Telstra, why dont they provide there stats?
