Build your own WiFi mesh today with a &lt;a href=&quot;http://meraki.com/&quot;&gt;Meraki&lt;/a&gt; box imported by &lt;a href=&quot;http://geodata.ca/&quot;&gt;Mike West&lt;/a&gt; with some help from &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.netequality.org/&quot;&gt;NetEquality&lt;/a&gt;. Bryght in combination with the folks at &lt;a href=&quot;http://outcome3.com/&quot;&gt;Outcome3&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://nitobi.com/&quot;&gt;Nitobi&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.donatgroup.com/&quot;&gt;Donat Group Enterprises&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://communicopia.com/&quot;&gt;Communicopia&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href=&quot;http://elasticentertainment.com/&quot;&gt;Elastic Entertainment&lt;/a&gt; and more daily are &amp;quot;unwiring&amp;quot; our very large extended Gastown block (Alexander to Abbott-ish initially with the goal being everywhere in Gastown eventually) of tech friendly companies. This means that anywhere you are in the mesh you will be able to use WiFi.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.raincitystudios.com/&quot;&gt;Raincity Studios&lt;/a&gt; social media maven Dave Olson &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.raincitystudios.com/thestandard/free-wi-fi-for-the-people-of-vancouver&quot;&gt;explains&lt;/a&gt; what this means:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;QUOTE&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;blockquote&gt;   &lt;p&gt;When considering the usage patterns (home users at night, business user by day) there is certainly abundant redundant bandwidth available and yet no reliable way to just get online without trying a bunch of SSIDs, risking cleartext password, hacking through a backdoor or other scheme.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
