Et oui! Aux 4 Jeudis vien tout juste de devenir un HotSpot de ogWiFi!

Allez voir leur terrace magnifique, entouré de l’architecture du vieu hull, des arbres et plein de vignes.  Un soleil sur la terrace à mon avis c’est magnifiques.  Pour les gens qui ne viennent pas de la région, Aux 4 Jeudis est un établissement francophone qui commence sont 31 ièm année.  La musique, l’ambiance et le choix de bièrre sont fabuleux.

We have a new HotSpot that reaches in one of the regions most established French Canadian Bars, Aux 4 Jeudi in Hull.  It is a beautiful location, with a large terrace surrounded by old Hull architecture, trees and vines.  They also play great music, have a fabulous ambiance and a great selection of beers.

ogWiFi has a brand new hotspot in front of the Parliament buildings - NCC Info Centre!

I understand from a Change Camp Ottawa attendee that the best place to use this hotspot is from the Info Centre’s second floor, facing the Hill looking at the flame, tulips and the house of government.  Nice!

Please enjoy this new hotspot and be sure to inform the NCC staff as to how wonderful it is.

Sincerely

Tracey

Umi Cafe and Xpresso are both ogWiFi Hotspots!

Read the nice article in the Ottawa Citizen A frothy café culture: Distinctive new coffee houses perk up Ottawa neighbourhoods.

Perhaps Aunt Olives, Raw Sugar and Viva Loca: Livin’ Local will also!  All you can do is ask them if you are patrons there!

Yes! ogWiFi and SIMtone are bringing connectivity to the Hill for the Net Neutrality rally!

Here are photos of our roaming node internet valise!  The not-so-little darling includes the following:

WiMax 802.16 wireless access modem connected to an 802.11b/g wireless access point/network address translation (NAT) router (WRT54GL) running a version of Linux and a very big battery! All loaded into a Sergio Valente suitcase.

Not as elegant as the Wireless Toronto Roach Coach but not bad for 45 minutes of work! See you at the Peace Flame!
