Link up! Knowle West Web connected to Bristol Wireless Backbone

Bristol Wireless is pleased to announce that the Knowle West Web network has now been successfully connected to the Bristol Wireless metropolitan area network backbone.

Bristol Wireless network engineer Lloyd Cohen remarked: “This was in itself a simple day-long joint reconfiguration by Knowle West Web admin (and city council guru) Jon Elmes and myself, yet represents a milestone in the creation of a true metropolitan area wireless network.”

Combined with the backbone installation and configuration work, this represents a great leap forward for Bristol Wireless. In an email to the Bristol Wireless list, Lloyd also expressed this in other words, paraphrasing the first man on the moon Neil Armstrong and describing it as, “One small step for man, one giant leap for Bristol Wireless”.
