It looks like we'll be having a Meraki-fest at the next meeting if you 
want to come down and see how they perform.

Would any list members we willing to host a Meraki in their house to 
extend a wireless network, particularly the ones in West Des Moines? 
Bandwidth would be provided and you can use a lower speed for free 
yourself or purchase a higher speed. Email me offlist and I'll probably 
ask you a few more questions.

THanks!
