Ermanno and Javier under a big dishErmanno Pietrosemoli and Javier Triviño (of EsLaRed) and Carlo Fonda (from the ICTP) have successfully established a whopping 279 km wifi link in Venezuela. They did it using a pair of Linksys WRT54Gs running DD-WRT and some recycled satellite dish antennas (no amplifiers!)

A blurb about the project (in Spanish) is up here, along with detailed PDFs in English and Spanish.

Congratulations, gentlemen!
