Frank, AFAIK the prohibition on commercial use of the frequency (2.4 GHz) does not extend to Europe. I am aware of existing commercial use at 2.4 Ghz., where the primary users are enterprise. An example of this would be parts of the former Winstar network, now absorbed into SkyberNet, in the Benelux countries.

In Scandinavia, I am aware of 802.11b being used by Telia, and 2.4 Ghz. being used commercially.

My point: I'm not sure that a workaround is needed, at 2.4 GHz, in Europe.

The UK is a whole 'nother thing. All commercial usage that I'm aware of is at licensed frequency. I will defer to Peter, but you may be able to find the answer you want here...
