I thought I'd get a thread started here...since the public network at DefCon is, at times, a contest unto itself!

When time allows, I update the DCNewtorking site (http://www.defconnetworking.org) -- so check that occasionally throughout the year.

WiFi for Everyone. We have a metric ass-load of bandwidth this year - internally & externally.

Russ has done is usual awesome job at collecting networking requirements from vendors, contest organizers, etc. We'll have that all up & going on-time for everyone.

I have officially (late?) opened Table of Doom registration. For those who remember from last year, ToD is an opportunity to grab a span-port and capture DefCon Network traffic. As the "most hostile network on the planet" it's a unique data capture opportunity. However, we only have so much space (and network ports), so I'm capping it at 8 slots this year (did 9 last year and ran a little low on physical space). A few prompt people had emailed me already about it; I've got 4 slots left. Drop me a PM here, or email me at noc [-at-] defconnetworking.org

We're going to try to make the Capri 101/102 hangout area a "free for all" - so if you want to play "hack your wifi neighbour" ...you can (or can you?)

Otherwise, have any questions, post it up!

I sent a PM a while ago about bandwidth for the wireless village and have'nt had a response. Same requirements, but this time we'll remember to bring cable!

Hrm... nothing in my PM inbox...odd. I blame <insert random goon name here>.

In any case, not a problem - I'd already pre-planned connectivity for ya, as always. Figured it was a safe assumption :)
