The addresses in the article include the MOT building (1000 Enterprise Way) but not TC (11th Ave). I'm not sure Google used 1020 or 1050 Enterprise? Honestly it seems like a small reduction, and of the buildings least connected to the

Depends what you mean by mesh. For me, the defining characteristic is better support for roaming/fast handoff, things like 802.11k and 802.11r. Agreed it's best to connect the access points with Ethernet.

Android GBoard turns "were" into "we're". "Ill" into "I'll". "Its" into "it's". Makes me look illiterate with all the extra apostrophes.

Earlier this week there was a limit posted on one gantry, then nothing on the next few. There's supposed to be an End or a national speed limit sign, but there wasn't.

EE doesn't work at my house and they don't care. Vodafone and O2 are better in my area, but I'm lucky if I get HSPA around my tube station. Really looking forward to getting mobile data on the tube.
