Re: IEEE 802.11xx, Wireless Data, Private Networks

Hi Scott,
Thanks for that informative post. At present I am limited to one puter, Medusa, which has 3 monitors, 3 video cards and one cable connection. I've been considering a laptop and your discussion of using 802.11 gear has just now completely turned me around on my plan, which was to use an Ethernet hub and cable system. What is the form factor on your laptop radio connection? PCMCIA? I'd love to get something internal if possible. The PCMCIA cards are just too fragile for a wild man like me, (or was that klutz?) Oh, whatever.

The reason I was curious about the 802.11a devices is to try to sort out Wi-Lan's niche in the spec battles. It appears to me that Cisco will be able to do its flavor of OFDM without paying a royalty to Wi-Lan. Comments welcomed.

Re: I live in a pretty rural area and so I'm actually looking at some point-to-point wireless radios for the link from my house to my office ... they are 900Mhz and have a range of 20 miles ... ~128kbps ...
I've looked at the Aironet line, and Breezecom. I'm curious as to which radio manufacturer you have chosen and what prompted your choice. TIA

Ciao, Ray
