First Student WiFi, Adelaide University

March 25th, 2002

One claim to fame, I installed the first student wifi in Adelaide Uni in 2002, now it’s part of normal university inffrastructure and totally taken for granted! Here’s a picture of a friend’s daughter “using” it… note the external PCMCIA* wifi card hanging out the side, literally laptops didn’t have wifi built in back then!
