• Only one simultaneous login per account allowed - sub-accounts (separate username/password) for people residing in the same unit are available on request.
• The network can be deployed as wired or wireless or both.  The network supports PCs, MACs, Desktops and Laptops, and network appliances that use TCP/IP for exchanging information.

• Intranets allow you to have a private network inside your condo.
• For buildings with wired access, you simply connect a cable/DSL router and connect your equipment to that router.
• For buildings with wireless access, you first need to purchase a WET-11 (see our hardware page) and use that to connect to your router.

• If you operate a 802.11b or g network in your condo, consider letting us help configure that device for the best reception of your own signal and least interference with you neighbors.   We have the experience and tools to deploy the most reliable network possible.

• All locations operate behind a firewall - so your computers are protected from attacks outside the building.
• Wired buildings use Ethernet switches to isolate your computer from traffic monitoring from others in the community.
• For complete security over wired and wireless networks, regardless of SBC, RR, and especially at public internet places either wired or wireless, we strongly recommend a VPN.   
• VPN connections will work over the wireless network.
• Our own VPN and WPA services will be coming soon. Watch this space.

• We will refund you your subscription fee if you are unhappy with our services, prorated for the number of days the service was used. Full refund can be request for hardware purchased from WiFi-Texas within 14 days of receipt of product.

• We discourage the use of peer 2 peer networks. These services are not only heavy bandwidth users and not in the spirit of community networking (by "hogging" service away from others in the community), some of them may even have questionable legitimacy based on emerging laws.  If you wish to use P2P networks, please continue to use your existing broadband provider.
• Save money on long distance calling - Use VOIP (voice over IP). Suggested phones under the Hardware section.
