You might want to look at Proxim's kit, particularly Harmony. The Harmony base stations are small, simple, relatively cheap (for enterprise base stations) and pass their traffic back a controller. You can have the base stations on various networks around and the wireless traffic tunnels back to the controller and can end up in the same broadcast domain. We're rolling out some of their equipment at work. Works pretty well. http://www.proxim.com/products/harmony/ P. -- pir pir@pir.net pir@net.tufts.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
