I'm wondering if anyone has had good experiences with this combo, or the 350 in general. Doug Ambrisko almost has me convinced, but I thought I'd ask... Also, I've been considering buying a PCI version of the aironet and connecting with ad-hoc mode. Are there any downsides to this, vs. connecting to a base station?
