Looks interesting – seems to be
similar to the Alcatel speedtouch 610. It is likely to be installed in the
loftspace
so something that can be configured using a web browser, over the wireless
network rather than having to crawl up with a serial cable and telnet into
a
CLI is essential.
Do you guys think I’m going
about
this the right way? I’m only intending to have two APs plugged into
the
router, but it does seem to make sense to get one that is capable of 10/100
rather than just 10baseT, as I get the sneaky felling that 802.11a, or
possibly
802.11g (really high bandwidth 2.4GHz data) is less than 18 months from
being
mainstream, so I would end up replacing the hub/switch at that
stage.
Given the costs involved I suppose it
won’t
cost a fortune to replace the hub at a later date any way. Decisions,
decisions!!
All input is gratefully received. The basic idea is to have full coverage
at
Internet speeds only over the whole 2.5 acre plot. There may be some sort
of
need for higher bandwidth file copying in the future, but for the time
being sub
1Mbit is all we are after J

For separate, you will need an ADSL modem with
an
ethernet connection and an
ethernet router such as the linksys BEFSR41 or
a
USB ADSL modem and a USB
router such as the DrayTek Vigor
2200USB.

Or the new Vigor 2600, which is a combined
ADSL
Modem and the guts of a
2200. :)
Vigor kit is *very* nice
