I don't often involve myself with the rants but usually read the fallout(and great advice)
I do have a question for the group now though.
I am in remote Canada and our hardware is somewhat less available and more costly.
I like to do some stumbling when I'm on the road. ( I would never look to access a protected network though ) My problem is that I have so far been limited to using the 650+ . This antenna sucks in the trucks ya know. I saw on the NS webpage the card with an external antenna listed at $150 ish and was instantly excited. My Questions:
-Is this a good card antenna combo?
-are there any recourses where I can research the cards first hand here in Canada? I am on the road a lot( good HW retailers )
It all seems so difficult here. I have not yet found a one stop shop. Many outfits here won't do retail sales. yada yada
I would be grateful for any help you have to offer but am somewhat less interested in the ranting.
