[oclug] BoldStreet wireless - tried it?

[Dan Langille]

Has anyone tried BoldStreet wireless?  I ask because I've tried twice 
without success.  I was trying with Konquerer, Links, and Opera to 
get an authorization prompt, but no luck.

I spoke with both BoldStreet and Toshiba today about this. It was 
probably 8 phone calls for a total of an hour or so talking to 
people.  I could get an IP address, browse to 
http://www.boldstreet.com/ and http://www.surfhere.com/ (i.e. the 
whitelisted sites), but could not get anything else.

The final conversation with Toshiba mentioned IE and Netscape, and 
broswers which support forced redirects(? I think that's what they 
said).  So now I'm wondering if anyone has succeeded with non-MS and 
BoldStreet.

Thanks.
