Has anyone any experience in this?

How do you add wireless to the safe local side of the e-smith network.

If wireless hardware only provides 40 bit encryption - how do you add
wireless to the "live" side of e-smith so you can VPN in safe 128
encryption?

What cards work well?

Is a base station needed?

How strong is the signal/how far?  Do brick walls pose a threat - can you
get "repeater stations" or mount aerials on roof tops to get the signal over
other buildings?

I have 2 clients where their offices are at the MAX 100 meters from their
houses.  It was ~100 meters walking - not in a straight line.

They will be using ADSL and e-smith at the office and a wired or unwired
LAN.  And we are exploring the possibility of setting up wireless to extend
the offices into their homes.  However there are a couple of buildings in
the "line of sight" way - and the walls of the office and house
respectively.  It is still >= 100 metres though.


Cheers,

Richard Ford.
