Mark,

Thanks. I remember the review now you've re-posted the link.

www.unwired.co.uk still accept hardware orders, but as of January, only for
GBP 1000 +vat :-(
(bulk buy anyone ??)

Good news that it's reliable, stable & easy to setup - that's important
to me.
While my budget will stretch to "G" kit, I'm now nervous of going
that route with Tony's & Paul's experiences. In six months time it may
all be sorted, but I really need to buy mine in the next couple of weeks.

Do the Orinoco cards have a connection for an external antenna ?

Thanks,

Tim H.

I originally had the WAP11 along with the LinkSys WPC11 card....

This was utter crap.  But it was the fault of the card not the WAP11.

There are several version of the WAP11 - the latest having a nice web
interface to configure, rather than the USB of earlier models.

Apart from a few setup issues, I've found the WAP11 to be ultra stable and
reliable, and with the Orinoco cards it's range is excellent.
