Make a WiFi hot spot back pack

Be Your Own Hotspot Turn a backpack into a portable, solar-powered Wi-Fi hotspot, and share a high-speed connection anywhere
By Mike Outmesguine
I love the fact that more and more devices are sporting built-in
Wi-Fi�the Sony PSP, smartphones, even Kodak�s EasyShare-One digital
camera. The lone hitch: Wi-Fi is useless without a hotspot. Sure,
thousands of spots are available, but few are free, and coverage is far
from ubiquitous. What if you could marry the short-range power of Wi-Fi
with the huge coverage areas of high-speed cellular services such as
EV-DO to create a portable hotspot? You could use any Wi-Fi-enabled
gadget anywhere you�ve got a cell signal. Play multiplayer games with
friends in the park, or blog an event in real-time. Since EV-DO works
at freeway speeds, you could even give Internet access to an entire
road-trip caravan.
Those
are exactly the kinds of things you can do with the backpack below. Its
secret ingredient: the Junxion Box. Plug a cellular-network card into
the book-size open-source-based device, and voil�instant Wi-Fi
hotspot, with speeds averaging around 700 kilobits per second. To power
the box, I wired it to a 1.2-amp-hour battery and dropped both into the
Voltaic Systems backpack, which has a built-in solar charger. Now I can
surf for as long as three hours without being tethered to anything but
a cell signal. The project isn�t cheap, but prices for the components
and service are sure to come down in the next year or so. In the
meantime, you can find me in the hills around Southern California. I�ll
be the one surrounded by PSP-packing hikers.
These parts are available at any electronics store: � 12-volt battery with spade terminals, 1.2 or higher amp-hour $15 � Male DC power plug, size M $5 � 18-gauge wire, black and red $5 � Female insulated quick-disconnect connectors, crimp-type, sized for battery spade terminals $3 � In-line fuse holder $7 � 20-amp fuse 50 cents
Instructions 1)
Plug in your EV-DO card and set up the Junxion Box to automatically
assign TCP/IP addresses using DHCP, and disable the authentication
splash page.
2)
To build the power-adapter cable, cut a length of red wire and a length
of black. Strip one end of each wire and crimp a spade terminal
connector onto each.
Strip
the other end of the red wire, and solder it to one end of the fuse
holder. Wrap the connection in electrical tape. Take apart the male DC
power plug. Solder the end of the black wire to the negative terminal
of the plug and the red wire to the positive. Wrap the exposed positive
connection in electrical tape, and reassemble the power plug. Install a
20-amp fuse.
3) Connect the Junxion Box cigarette-lighter adapter to the backpack �power out� plug.
4) Connect the battery cable to the �battery� plug on the backpack�s charge controller.
