My secoond attempt at posting here so hopefully i wont screw it up this time..
Im totaly new to the whole wifi business so go easy...
I just went out and bought a wap54g, i see there seems to be several firmware upgrades giving more output power (upto 82mw) isnt there a legal issue for that here in the uk? Can anyone reccomend a good firmware upgrade for the 54? and post a link.
I guess im right (after reading for sometime) that i cannot use netstumbler with this as it is an ap and i need a wireless nic? is there any other software that can be used with the 54 that can "scan" local area's?
I dont intend to be mobile with my setup so im thinking of a nice 20+ directional yagi and maybe a rotator, any thoughts on this..?
Thanks for any input, sorry im a real noob on this.
Anyone know where i can buy "wireless for dummies"
Cmon guys give a noob a clue..
