Dear IETF participants; MIS (Mobile Internet Services, Inc., http://www.miserv.net (in English, http://www.miserv.net/miserv-new/english_new/) and Miako Net Project (http://www.miako.net) are pleased to announce to jointly offer IETF participants free Mobile IPv4 access with 802.11b wireless LAN in Tokyo with more than 200 base stations and Kyoto with more than 100 base stations (sorry, none in Yokohama). A clickable map for the service areas in Tokyo is located at: http://www.miserv.net/miserv-new/renew/service/serv03area.html A map for the service areas in Kyoto is located at: http://www.sccj.com/miako/area.files/miako_map_v5.01.png With mobile IP, you can move from one access point to another without losing the connection, of course. I will deliver those of you who are interested in our service account information valid in July, 2002. However, MIS considers it essential social responsibility of wireless ISPs to cryptographically secure communication between our access points and terminals of identified users. So, MIS users are required to 1) download and install software for cryptographically secure communication with packet-wise MD5/AES protection 2) identify yourself to MIS/Miako For the identification, contact me or some other person of MIS or Miako Project personally with proper identification (e.g. IETF badge). On Sunday, I'll be in a terminal room between 16:00 and 17:00 and reception between 17:00~18:00. Or, I can mail the account information by e-mail to authorized mail addresses, if you can fill the attached application form. The authorized mail addresses are mail addresses identity of which is reliably recognized. All the mail addresses appears in some RFC or unexpired Internet Draft are considered authorized. You can suggest me other ways to authorize mail addresses (no, I'm not using PGP). We are happy to issue multiple account for a single application, if the applicant is responsible for the use of all the account. Driver software for UNIX (NetBSD 1.5.2 (not tested), NetBSD 1.5ZA20020115, FreeBSD 4.4R (not tested a lot)) can be found at: ftp://chacha.hpcl.titech.ac.jp/misclient-20020705.tar.gz Driver software for Windows 2000/XP can be found at: http://www.miserv.net/miserv-new/english_new/driver/driver.html or ftp://chacha.hpcl.titech.ac.jp/Genuine208_2KXP_E.exe The driver should work with most PCMCIA WLAN cards (but not with WLAN interface internal to PCs).
