Ever sat down somewhere with your Wi-Fi capable device, been greeted with a small swarm of publicly-accessible networks, and wondered which you should choose to access the Internet? Well, why not use all of them? Mark Hoekstra and his colleague Boris at Geek Technique have come up with a not-quite-tiny box dubbed the Slurpr which can attach to as many as six Wi-Fi networks and offer the combined bandwidth as a single broadband connection. The box runs Debian Linux, sports a MIPS embedded processor, wired Ethernet, 64 MB of RAM, 128 MB of onboard flash memory, 4 GB Compact Flash card, and six MiniPCI slots sporting Senao/Engenius 5354MP Wi-Fi cards using the Atheros AR5213 chipset.
