"Mobile warriors having trouble making a wireless connection across the hall
might want to give some Ohio teens a call. This weekend they were able to
make a 55-mile Wi-Fi connection.

The teens from Cincinnati got an ovation at the DefCon hacker conference
here Sunday when organizers announced at the Alexis Park Resort that the
winners of this year's Wi-Fi shootout might have broken a world record for
ground distance in establishing a 55.1-mile Wi-Fi connection."
