Just connect to the network at the meeting, go to IE and type in: brca2009
That brings up the BBK screen with the download link. ;)

Took us most of sat to download the file, then despite having a wireless connection to the BRCA router it wouldn't work. Worked for others though, maybe signal was too weak where we were?

I think the AP really needs to be put up on the rostrum or something.

Interesting.
Chris Hardisty went on a "pit walk" early Sunday PM and reported no issues. In fact he stated that many people had really quick Polling times.
The AP was situated on the roof of the caravan so should have been able to broadcast anywhere to the pits. Was the rostrum in a direct line of site between you and the caravan? If so, the metal of the rostrum may have some effect.
It was strange that many people could connect without issue, but as has been stated, some couldn't connect standing next to the caravan.
I will try and site the AP higher at Oz.

Not all laptops have decent wireless capabilities. We have three types at work, one will only sniff 3 AP's at a time, the Dells will sniff over 10 at any one time as the cards/aerials are better. It's possible the Caravan was also affecting the signal getting through to some users. It might be worth considering setting up two AP's at different locations to spread the amount of users on the system, the more users on the AP the more stressed it will become and cause possible dropouts, etc.

As a last thought it might be worth trying a different wireless channel.
1, 6 and 11 are the standards.

I'd imagine you would need a net interface, rather than a program. Im not sure if they are used at nationals.

Hi All

Wirless and PDA programs Can be found on the BBK website there are 2 types BBKNETSCREEN and an IE result Screen

For Laptops and some PDA

Go to bbk website and Download the exact netscreen for the Software Being Used (ie bbk2006 needs 2006 netscreen)

For the result screen just goto the ip address the router is sending

Hope this Helps

Glyn

PS Some Wirless Routers do some weird things and some PDA can connect and some Cannot its also a line of sight issue and signal strength and belive it or not 2.4 Ghz does some weird stuff also

I only asked as when running at the Players, i had to get my laptop set up with the latest software to pick up netscreen.. So im guessing this is what the BRCA is now running.. i havent got my laptop with me to make sure, but ive downloaded the file using your link so will check if its the same..

Cheers
