Anyone know of a supplier in the USA? > > Ok, now I understood, Mike :) This is 8-bit ISA card. Can operate in two mode: point-to-point - between two 655 ( sorry, I will use old terminology ), and when one or more 655 card connected to access point - other Aironet's product - little box with antenna and ethernet connector ( old name arlan-640, new - BR2000 ). Radio parameters: Frequency: 2400 or 900 MHz, vary from disain up to 5 frequency ( 2412, ..27, 42, 57 and 65 in our case ). Bitrate: up to 2 Mbit/s for 2.4GGz models, and 860kb/s for 900MHz. Power: 100mW or 1 W with external amplifier ( not sure about 900MHz ). Security: System Identifier, 6 hexadecimal value. And last, I don't know about price :( > >-- > >\\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith > >\\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au > >\\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org > >\\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com > > > > > > > >To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > >with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message > > > > -- Ran d'Adi ran@ran.am ran@styx.aic.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
