Slurpr 8 Signal Wi-Fi Broadband Router Unveiled
By Alexander Grundner |

Siiiiick! Mark Hoekstra from Geek Technique has hacked together a monster Wi-Fi router that merges up to 8 open wireless connections into one massive data stream (theoretical max throughput: 432Mbps). Not only that, Mark is integrating an automated WEP 64/128 bit cracking application to force its way into weakly locked networks (obviously controversial and can get you into legal hot-water).
The downside so far: the device, as it stands now, costs 999 euros. Nevertheless, Mark seems adamant to get the aptly named Debian-based Slurpr router out to the public in the very near future. More details and pics available here (via Digg).
