The #lfeeus #wifi does have good speeds: 5-9 Mbps down, 15 Mbps up. Probably shared symmetric pipe with few people uploading, like at #SEA.

Seems the #wifi at #lfeeus this year has port 443 filtering (HTTPS works, SSH never gets welcome string). Port 22 fine, some others blocked.

Denver Gingerich

Appreciating the gratis #wifi at #SEA: no ICMP/port blocks and getting 1 Mbps down, 2 Mbps up. SEA could teach #NYC airports some lessons.

@evan While I agree with #commonwifitos in general, I think different venues will demand different terms: categorization needed. #wifi #ToS

Denver Gingerich Evan Prodromou , Denver Gingerich

@evan But of course we would need both the AP and your device to agree on some categories. I doubt manufacturer will is there. #wifi #ToS

Denver Gingerich Evan Prodromou , Denver Gingerich

@evan With categorization you could have your device auto-agree to certain terms. Useful if passing through subway station with #wifi. #ToS

Denver Gingerich Evan Prodromou

@evan Agreed. Categorization like http://tos-dr.info/#services is good generally, but essential for no-time-to-read #wifi #ToS.

#YYZ #wifi not only free, but also pretty decent: ~13 Mbps up and down with no port/ICMP blocks. Has captive portal with long #ToS, though.

Denver Gingerich

At #YYZ, #wifi is still free (Terminal 3). #LGA needs to find some wifi sponsors; still costs quite a bit as of a week ago.

Denver Gingerich

#LAX Terminal 4 #wifi pretty nice: 5 Mbps up/down, no ICMP/port blocks, but captive portal w/ #ToS. Glad LAX now has free wifi like YVR/YYZ.

Denver Gingerich

#LAX Holiday Inn Express #wifi ok: 1.6 Mbps down, 0.6 Mbps up. ICMP/ports unblocked, but captive portal w/ #ToS. Off to #JFK early tomorrow.

San Diego Ocean Park Inn #wifi not great: captive portal w/ #ToS, extremely flaky, 0.4-1.0 Mbps down, 0.2 Mbps up. But ICMP/ports unblocked.

Palm Desert Best Western Plus #wifi ok: 1 Mbps down, 0.6 Mbps up, ICMP/ports unblocked. Captive portal w/ #ToS, drops downloads @ 1MiB mark.

Yucca Valley Best Western #wifi decent and has wired (yay!): 7.6 Mbps down, 1 Mbps up, no blocked ICMP/ports. Captive portal, but no #ToS.

Denver Gingerich

Leaving #Bakersfield shortly; off to Yucca Valley via routes 58 and 247. @Marriott #wifi ok: 2 Mbps down, 0.5 Mbps up, no port/ICMP blocks.

Used !IBM #OS/2 for a while, resisting #Windows assimilation, WiFi issues were common. Now, !GNU !Debian: #WiFi in the train..a snap. !Linux

@evan Thanks; I've been told that is not the issue; perhaps may have been location #WiFi I was using

dothidden Debian

!debian Does anyone have tp-link tl-wn881nd #wifi controller? What driver does it need? Can one make an access point from it?
