I dunno that a WAP11 is going to be that much of an improvement over a DWL-1000AP.. What are you trying to improve: speed, range, features ? You may be able to increase the range by adding an external antenna. Here's some fairly crude instructions on how to replace the MMCX (I think) that goes to the folding antenna with an N connector: http://www.seattlewireless.net/index.cgi/DlinkAccessPointComments You can always use a pigtail that matches the connector on the folding antenna (as I said, I think it's an MMCX) - use this to connect to some third-party antenna (the exact one depends on the area you wish to cover and the $$ you're willing to spend.) Examples include: http://www.superpass.com/2400-2483M_RE.html http://www.cushcraft.com/thumbs.asp?id=1 http://www.maxrad.com/_2ghz-6ghz.sht http://www.antennasystems.com/broadband.html#anchor932487 http://www.hyperlinktech.com/web/antennas_2400.html I'm sure a few minutes spent with google will return more options. What kind of improvements did you have in mind ? -- andyw at pobox.com Andy Warner Voice: (612) 801-8549 Fax: (208) 575-5634
