| == Train == 1. Florenville has a train station (Brussels-Florenville takes 2 hours) (Take the Line Brussels-Luxembourg, change at Libramont, and take the small train to Florenville-Virton) 1. There is also a possibility to go to Marbehan, and ask for car pickking up in advance with your time of arrival. 1. There is also another possibility to go to the french station of Sedan (40km away), and ask for car pickking up a week in advance. == Road == Florenville is at 1h30 of Brussels if you drive fast on the E411 highway. 1. From Brussels: distance is 180 km, take the motorway E411, direction Arlon; at junction n°26, take direction Neufchâteau, and then Florenville. 1. From Luxembourg: 1.

| * longshots: Florenville-Arlon Longshot 36,5km (10 Apr 2003 18:45) - Longshot between Florenville (Waveguide 32slots placed on the church tower) and Arlon (Yagi of XavierVL). Distance 36,5km. Data transfert of 50ko/sec during 5 minutes but we didn't succeed to do the same after, we were quite disapointing... We think that the fresnel zone was not so good to realize a good link.
