i live on the botany side of howick but my friend lives on the pakuranga side. There is a large hill in the way. Is it possible for me to connect to a botany node to talk to my mate that uses the highland park node?

yep, possible, but only if the nodes are connected

subway,

If you are refering to a connection to the BorgWiFi network then the answer is not officially at this stage, however in some instances we wil allow this but it really depends on what you are wanting to do over the network. If its P2P then we refrain from allowing this if its Games etc then we are certinly a little more relaxed with this.
Saying that if both you and your buddy can see and connect to the same node then by default you are in the same network group and should be able to connect to each other.
