Am I missing something here?

Yes. You need the PCMCIA card as well.

This was one of the alternatives I was looking at before I plumped for the AirPort and WaveLan cards.

In retrospect, I shouldn't have wasted my money on the AirPort - what a crock of (hell, I'll put the '[censored]' in here myself).

The range is abysmal.

You can only configure all options with a Mac.

I've had other major grief which a firmware reload didn't solve (after borrowing a friend's Mac), but, surprisingly, me kicking the crap out of it when I got really really annoyed actually fixed it.

Ah well, it was an interesting experiment, but I think I'll be buying a WavePoint bridge. Anybody want to buy an AirPort with Swiss cables?

Nick.
