Anyone know of any, and if they are compatible with Star-OS?

This seems to solve an IRQ problem with Soekris boards...

Yes, we fully support them, but do not know off hand where to purchase them other than directly from Agere.

Thanks!

I believe YDI sells them, check under their OEM section

Ugh.

Nothing certified.

I guess I can't use the Agere cards.


Geez, this really sucks.

Is there any .11g stuff out there?

I'd like to make a fast link for a short distance - mile or so..

D-Link has a good 802.11g line.

I'm not sure about the D-Link .11g router & Aps, but the PCI cards should be Ok.

These cards should be supported when we release our 802.11a/g support though I cannot comment on a release timeframe right now.

Thanks!

A couple of AP's in bridge mode should get you decent throughput up to a few thousand feet, provided you get some antennas on them...

• 54Mbps OFDM, 10% PER,-68dBm)
• 48Mbps OFDM, 10% PER,-68dBm)
• 36Mbps OFDM, 10% PER,-75dBm)
• 24Mbps OFDM, 10% PER,-79dBm)
• 18Mbps OFDM, 10% PER,-82dBm)
• 12Mbps OFDM, 10% PER,-84dBm)
• 11Mbps CCK, 8% PER,-82dBm)
• 9Mbps OFDM, 10% PER,-87dBm)
• 6Mbps OFDM, 10% PER,-88dBm)
• 5.5Mbps CCK, 8% PER,-85dBm)
• 2Mbps QPSK, 8% PER,-86dBm)
• 1Mbps BPSK, 8% PER,-89dBm)

That's from the D-Link tech specs .pdf file.

I'd like to point out that not only was Buffalo the first to release any .11g stuff, but their APs (not sure about the cards offhand, probably the same) come with a 2 year warranty, and a guarantee that they'll replace it if the ratified standard can't be met with a firmware upgrade...
