About 20 years ago, there was only dial-up internet available in my street. My parents lived about 200 m away from me in another street, and they could get ADSL. So I set up a wireless bridge to them, and it worked surprisingly well after some tweaking. Kept it running for a few years, eventually got my own connection because one day my dad called me because he needed the router password. Turns out he was also sharing the connection with his neighbour who was running an internet radio station.

Govt subsidies? Really?

I used it for the first time last week on a hike. It worked, but not intuitively at all. I had downloaded a GPX file which I imported in Osmand, and before I got the navigation working I had inadvertly added two waypoints.
