It used to be a fairly simple rule: your mobile phones must be turned
off while flying. But, these days, mobile phones are more than just
mobile phones. If I can use a Palm device on an airplane, shouldn't I
be able to use my Treo phone with the phone part turned off? The
problem, though is that this is
causing all sorts of trouble for
airline staff who have no easy way to know whether the mobile
phone part has been turned off. Some device makers are even including
a "flight mode" option that turns off the wireless connection and
clearly states FLIGHT MODE on the display for any concerned flight
attendant. However, to deal with all of this, companies are starting
to push new technology that would make it possible to let people use
mobile phones while in-flight. While there are a number of different
reasons often cited for not allowing mobile phone use - the biggest
issue is that the signal hits many different towers at once, causing
problems for the network. One solution appears to basically put a
mobile cellular tower within the plane, so that calls route through
that base station, and can be more carefully routed to the ground. Of
course, this leads to the inevitable question about just how annoying
it will be when everyone on the plane is talking during the flight,
but that's a different problem for a different post. In the meantime,
though, combined with the new Connexion system from Boeing providing
wireless internet access in the air, and people may never need to set
foot on the ground again.

Big WLAN on Campus
Big WLAN on Campus
01/06/2005 03:14 PM Colleges are the bleeding edge of WLAN technology: I wrote this piece
for Mobile Pipeline (my first for them) which started out as a more
general best practices article for giant WLANs, and morphed into an
article about college WLANs. Why? As I explain in the story, giant
WLAN enterprises don't want to talk on or off the record about what
they're doing. Academic institutions are happy to oblige. Schools also
have the disadvantage of having to support many, many generations of
equipment and operating systems. You can't tell a professor to take a
flying leap, and some schools may still have five-year-old laptops and
desktops that still have to be integrated. It's clear that 802.1X is
the next big trend for both schools and enterprises. It solves many
problems while adding tremendous policy flexibility. Using 802.1X and
L2TP means that you can have smaller VLANs that are segregated by
policy, group, or even randomly to balance users among VLANs....

networking world: Nancy Gohring's report on ReefEdge's new WLAN
switches for InfoWorld reveals a company that's changed its focus from
policy-based WLAN management of homogeneous devices to a range of
devices that allow RF management of APs from several vendors, and
small-office networking. This is a pretty classic company development:
customers certainly told them about the gaps in the line-up from all
vendors, and ReefEdge moved to fill them. I hear from small offices
all the time looking for devices that have enterprise-scale features
but without the enterprise-scale price tag because their per-user cost
would be 10 or 20 times the enterprise's due to a lack of economy of
scale....
