The company has an office about 100 meters long and I use 2 wall mounted transceivers to cover the whole thing. Speed is only 2-3Mbps, but my T-1 is only 1.5Mbps so the Xircom is great! Only Xircom has this tiny antenna that pokes out of the laptop about 1cm. Great. If there were only FreeBSD drivers! (how can I help make that a reality?) chris
