Guest neilg Posted March 26, 2003 Report Posted March 26, 2003 I am sure somone on here must know this. Once upon a time, I am sure AGere(Orinocco, now Proxim) made a product like this in the US. What I would like to buy is a one box fits all solution to give me WLAN to 2 notebook PC's in my house. I DO NOT want to have a seperate DSL Modem(Router) Plugged into a wireless gateway. Basically One Box, 2 wires, one is an RJ11 to my Phone SOcket (via DSL FIlter), the other is a power supply. Everything esle is wireless (although I can handle having to plug it into RJ45 or USB to configure it as a one time thing). I cannot believe no-one makes on and I am sure I have seen one somewhere, I have again today looked at USR, D-Link, Intel, Belkin, 3Com, Proxim etc etc and all the gateways seem to need a seperate modem. Thx for any of u that can help - perhaps I have found a niche!! (I doubt it)

I have a bunch of their 802.11b equipment. It was the cheapest (still is), but the throughput's not great (1mbit/s max on a 11mbit card). Still, what do you expect for £50 wlan cards? Netgear one's £70 more - ouch!

Guest meaks Posted March 30, 2003 Report Posted March 30, 2003 I have the speedtouch 570 wireless connected to two laptops and a desktop around my house. Does the job very nicely. Always have a full signal around my house (and outside!). Got it from DSL Source, which were also excellent and delivered within 48 hours.
