[OPLINTECH] Linux based WiFi Routers

[Eric Maynard]

Jim,  

Thanks for the response. 

Do you think it is well suited to use in a public hotspot (eg Public Library) where you require logins? 

I'll try to contact Karl as well.

I think ultimately, I will use my own home net as a guinea pig as well.
