finally...wifi
Finally, we've got wi-fi.
wi oh wi did it take us so long to get it?
The Village of Lansing requires us to filter it.
Patrick Smith told me about ZoneCD from PUBLICip.
After finally giving up on recycling that very very ancient PC, I tried a different one, and it worked!
It's open source and has a built in filter. Cool!
It also reports on # of users. Cool!
Users can create a login, or connect anonymously.
Friends of Lansing Library bought us the wireless access point. (Thanks Friends!)
See the rest of the set, including what a blocked site looks like.
I am soooo glad this is finally up & running, as just a little over a week ago, a helpful patron inquiring about wireless availability suggested I check out the setup at Panera!

Glad to see you got it working. Has anyone complained about the filtering?
So far, we haven't had to use filtering on our wifi.

No complaints on filtering yet, but we're required to do so by our village. In just a week, we've had several people 'test' the filter, as it turns out, zonecd emails the log of blocked sites.
