Hey guys. I'm moving in today with my fiance to our apartment in Bloomington, Indiana. Seeing as we will both be broke as monkey crap, (WHY WON'T THEY TAKE V-BUCKS! WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY???????) I might not be online for a few days until we get Comcast out to flick on the cable. So... right now I am praying to almighty God that after I move in, get some sexy time, and a nap, that my computer will be able to leech off a wireless signal.

I'll be like Bambi. Disappear for a few days and then return... riding on a white-tail. *Sniff* I miss you you furry fucker!
 

GO IRISH!!!

a cool trick for someone in your situation, IF they have a G1 phone. I imagine other cell phones as well

You can root your G1 phone(giving you access to the root) and basically turn your phone into an access point. You can then connect your laptop, or desktop (w/wireless adapter) to the internet via your G1 phone(go into wireless config on computer and you will see the SSID broadcasted from your phone! uber!). If you have the unlimited data plan with your mobile phone service, your all set. I'm not saying that its the best conenction, but for a situation when you are in a bind, its great.

of course rooting your G1 phone is considered hacking; and if you needed to call for service, your phone company will not even restore your phone to its factory state if you have rooted it. But if you rooted your phone in the first place, you should be able to restore it back to factory state...Once restored to factory settings, call your phone company for warranty service, they'll never know the difference.
