Share bandwidth securely over WiFi
The PERM project is designed to help people in residential areas share bandwidth securely with their neighbors over WiFi. The software actively monitors network usage and distributes traffic across the different wired connections. It gives priority to the owner of the wired connection. It seems like a good idea, but I wonder how effective it will be. Cable users are already on a shared line so it seems this would be a net loss and I doubt DSL users will be happy when a neighbor slams them into their monthly traffic limit.
