So funny that, the Noisebridge internet box is still online and never
lost connection during the raid...

We're pretty sure the box didn't get removed from the camp before police
were able to kick everyone out or arrest those who were still waiting.
So our guesses are...

* Someone buried the box with a car battery
* The box with poorly tethered battery is in police custody
* DPW has all this
* It's in some garbage truck somewhere

If the police or DPW have the box, some how they were super careful not
to disconnect it from the janky bare wires I left Occupy with.

The internet box is basically a WiMax modem, a extremely strong wifi
access point, a custom made PoE injector (PoE out of both ports!) all
inside a plastic box with lid and Noisebridge stickers all over it. The
thing connects to a 12V car battery.

Anyhow, others can try to get it back, if not hardware is cheap and time
isn't. We can put together another one.
