Older stuff from Proxim; the first-generation wireless
networking cards. You can do 802.11b with the RangeLAN/2 stuff under
Linux/Windows, but the original RangeLAN cards only did Windows
peer-to-peer networking (NetBIOS/NetBEUI?) and not TCP/IP...
damn, even ebay prices for 802.11b stuff are up near retail.
looks like ill be waiting another six months.
