There is work underway to develop 54mbit wireless products that that run at the 5GHZ band but as far as I recall they wont even be on the market for another year. That is the fastest I've heard for local wireless LANs -mtl -----Original Message----- From: David Wilson [mailto:dave@sai.co.za] Sent: Wednesday, June 06, 2001 6:43 AM To: InvictaNet Customer Support; Freebsd-ISP Subject: RE: Wireless LAN Hi Thanks for getting back to me, It gets rid of cabling issues etc. Is there no way to run 100mb or 1gb over wireless ?

AFAIK all (cost effective)wireless systems run at 10mbps max. Surely you would be better off using a 100 or Gig cable based system?

We are looking at moving our local LAN here and all our servers to a wireless network, currently all our servers are on a shared 10MB Cat5 network. We currently have 18 servers that we need to move to a wireless arrangement. What wireless products work the best with FreeBSD or Linux ? What scalability do these wireless products have ? Thanks, any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
