Post subject: | Greetings from Teton national forest! |
Greetings from Teton national forest! I am in the national forest east of Teton national park. I have my auto ap router hard wired into the van and the external antenna up under the luggage rack with the antenna sticking through one of the drain holes. I've been watching the wifi try to connect to host access points driving down the road. An rv passed us on i80 with a secured Verizon hotspot and an open photo printer. It would have been interesting to try and print something on their photo printer while we were going down the road. So we pulled over to find a place to camp for free in the national forest. Got a nice spot with plenty of firewood. As it turns out there is a private lodge about a 1/3 mile away from us that has wifi. The router was able to connect to it and we have been using the wifi. Our devices could not see the wifi from here, but the external antenna and the router picked it up without much issue. We have no cell phone reception here, but I was able to do a VoIP phone call with my girlfriend last night. So the router has been working quite nice, I was able to use some wifi back in lander wy to do some business and before that way back in Saratoga wy I was able to download an app for the iPad. Overall I am pretty pleased with how it has been working out so far. Some screenshots: http://i.imgur.com/8MuDz.png So next up is to test in the national park. Let's see if I can find open wifi anywhere. |

Just a short video showing some natural hot springs. This is unique in that most hot springs areas have been developed and very few are "natural" where they are just warm water coming out of the ground. Typically any that have hot water get developed with big pools, hotels, etc so its neat to be able to hike into a hot springs that it basically a natural feature. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0eoGy5YOw8 |
