Dialup... and my WiGLE rank :)

Saturday 30 September 2006 at 6:59 pm Well. Guess what? I'm ranked at 190 on WiGLE. Excellent.

5,394 networks discovered.

About 2000 of those, without the help of anything special (PCMCIA cards or external antennas).

And another surprise:

When I said that I was going to stumble on the way to Victor Harbor I was met with some strange looks... as if nothing much would be found. 162 new networks. Still, for the distance we drove, that's not particularly good, but more than I expected. 162 new networks isn't that bad anyway.

The sunroof was open, and there was my 6dbi antenna and the GPS, right in the slipstream. At 110km/h, it sounded like it was in a plane. Only to me though, as I was directly behind it.

Still, the antenna and GPS didn't move a single bit, which was very good. Strong magnets.
