Apologies if this is the wrong group but my son is spending the summer 
in Paris (I know tough life) and needs some Internet access.  I've 
looked via Google and found a few but there is/was a project to put wifi 
in the metro stations.  I cannot find anything on the current status of 
the metro project.  Any other information will be appreciated.
thanks to all
Jim

Tell him to purchase these products before he leaves for Paris:

16-19dBi Antenna [YAGI]
Wireless Atheros [Cisco chipset] NIC [laptop]
Software: NetStumbler, Airsnort, AirDump...or if possible get Linux 
BackTrack and config it.

With these products you should be able to use internet for free as long as 
someone within a 1.1mile radius has a wireless router....some work may be 
involved [if you catch my drift] ;)
