Ed,
Forgive my evangelism, but immediately purchase a pair of WebGear
Aviator cards. Actually, purchase one for each computer you own. I
used to use the IBM Lan Entry adapters, but these are 8x as fast, and
2-3x the range.
I have an old 486 running Linux as my gateway. Two ethernet cards+ one
Aviator. One ethernet card goes to the DSL modem (one static IP), one
to the home wired network (192.168.1.x).
My wireless net is 192.168.3.x. My wife's Compaq Armada and my Lib70
both have Aviators.
The only problem with your hammock scenario is that the display washes
out in midafternoon.
Email me if you need any advice. The linux driver is here:
