Tolien's Network?

Big.Wayne · 9 Jan 2008 at 14:27

Hello all,

Being a network nOOb and all I have decided to start doing my homework by reading these forums. Does anyone know about this being called *Tolien*?

People have told me he is always connected to his network wherever he roams and I am curious to know more about what network he has? or indeed how many networks he has?

Can he really surf wirelessly at over 100Mbps wherever he is?
Does he really issue instructions via his pocket PC to start running his bath while he is on his way home?
Who knows what kinda network and network kit he has?
Does he have really have a five terabytes NAS on his PAN?
Is he able to look into anyones network who isn't hiding behind a sonic wall?
Is it true he has a personal sattelite in orbit which he can access somehow?

So many myths and rumours (I listed just a handful) I don't know what to believe? I figure that if I want to be successful in a networking career its a good start to look at someone else who has had success and look at what they are doing? what kit they are using and how they are using it?

Any thoughts?

I've heard he defeats firewalls with his mind, just for fun.

Some say he invented the Internet before electricity. Others say he helped beta test the Matrix. All we know is, he's called Tolien!
