Thanks, Isaac.
I know you said that's for the PK, so I can likely assume it applies to
the mPower as well.

Jean,
these questions will come up again and again and again and again and
again. If anyone gets sick of them, they got two choices. 1. Use their
delete key and two signoff.
the Mpower is new and I do believe there's a list of the cards wait...
The following are supported and tested wireless cards that will work
with
a BrailleNote PK:
1 Ambicom WL1100C-CF revision 2 only (serial number WL2342xxxxxxxx)
2 Linksys WCF12 Wireless CompactFlash Card
3 SanDisk Connect Plus CF WiFi + 128MB Memory card
4 NetGear MA701, Wireless Ethernet Adapter, 11Mbps, 802.11b,
CompactFlash II
5 Socket Card Low Power Wireless LAN type I CF card
Some other cards that are compatible but have not been tested include:
1 Meritline MWL-672 Wireless LAN 11b Compact
2 Dlink DCF-660W, Wireless Ethernet Adapter, 11Mbps, 802.11b,
Compact Flash
3 Symbol Spectrum NetWLAN

Okay. I know this has been discussed many, many times, and you guys
must get sick of us newbees asking the same old stuff.
First, I'm aware of the recommended Ambicard for the choice of
wireless
card on the BN side of things. But for the life of me, I can't find
where on the Humanware site they list recommended cards, etc. for the
mPower. Why is this basic stuff so well hidden? It's not under the
FAQ
for the mPower as suggested as far as I can find, and it's not in the
Readme file as the User Guide suggested it would be.
Second, are there any recommendations or things to avoid for the
wireless router side of things? We looked at a computer flyer
yesterday and
they are now selling new routers with faster speeds and claim they
are more
efficient, etc. The term used is Xtreme G networking.
Some routers are noted as broadband routers. Is it necessary to
consider the
kind of Internet connection the main PC uses? What about the
letters. For
example, one router said it supported 802.11G and was backward
compatible to
802.11B technology.
So, anything I should specifically look for or avoid?
Also, on the websites of two local computer stores, Best Buy and
Future Shop,
I have not been able to find anything to do with Ambicom. Any
alternatives?
