using a WiFi router as a closed local network
I set up a WiFi router today at school, with no internet connection to use for ssh logins to Raspberry Pi and OSC experiments with Arduino. It has the same SSID as my home router so it will be interesting to see what happens when I go from one place to the other.
Update: Actually this works great. Have been using it for any situation that requires OSC.
How to set up wireless ad hoc network on Mac OS
right-click the wi-fi signal icon in the status bar and select ‘create network’
This is useful if you are trying to run a project which requires WiFi – like touchOSC – and you are on a restricted network – at a school for example. You make your own network which is separate from the Internet.

Astronaut Drives Lego Robot Via ‘Interplanetary Internet

“The test used NASA’s Disruption Tolerant Networking (DTN) protocol, which the space agency a decade ago jointly developed with TCP/IP co-inventor and Google VP Vint Cerf. The technology can withstand delays and disruptions that might be common in space due to long distances and obstacles like planets and solar storms. Unlike Internet Protocol, which establishes an end-to-end connection before sending data, DTN moves data node-to-node, and can wait for connections to open up before relaying information to further nodes.”
