If both strictly adhere to 802.11 it should theoretically work. Can anyone give me a reality check on this? I would not even consider this but I tire of paying $65 for that stupid little connector cable that Wavelan requires to connect to larger antennas. If anyone knows a inexpensive source for those cables, I will withdraw this question.
