PyCon Wireless Network

How do you make 600 Python geeks happy? Well, wireless network access
is a good start...

Last year at PyCon 2006, the hotel ran the wireless network. Despite
our repeatedly telling them that we were going to be heavily using the
wireless network ("No, really, we're going to be heavily using the
wireless network."), they really weren't prepared for our level of
use. We also had problems with their technical support, things like
the DHCP server giving out leases with a gateway in a different
network from the lease, and their support people rebooting APs to
"fix" it (which, not surprisingly, it didn't).

It was so bad last year, that we decided to run our own wireless
network this year. [...]
