SETTING UP AN ACCESS POINT IN THE MIDWAY AREA and HOW ABOUT THAT NEW 802.11b PROTOCOL? I am going to be setting up an access point in the Midway area of St. Paul primarily for use by folks on our block club. I'm going to try and come to the meeting on Tuesday. I am interested in knowing whether anyone has recommendations for AP hardware that is a)stable and robust and b) relatively transparent ... easy to figure out and set up. SeattleWireless has positive references to SMC on their site. Also, I am seeing some stuff on 802.11a protocol. Supposed to be faster. That's probably not going to matter given a cable internet connection. However, does anyone have any thoughts about whether this new protocol is more stable and robust than 802.11b? I've seen concerns raised about interoperability. My suspicion is that for a public site, it's better to choose a common denominator like 802.11b. I admit freely that I am not a techie ... just someone who is interested in making wireless access available to myself and neighbors. Thanks ... Patrick Sheehy
