<DIV>Yes, I reach that hidden service, and it takes about 15 sec. I left my hidden sercice, a webserver, ran overnight and it still didn't work. BTW, the browser client timeout quicker than 15 sec and privoxy gave me a 503 error.</DIV>

<DIV>I'll be patiently waiting for software updates for TOR. Freenet, i2p, MUTE, etc are all impractical in terms of speed.</DIV>

<DIV>By hardware store I mean shops where you can get nuts and bolts (Home Depot), and they sell wireless routers too.</DIV>
