RG-1100 - does not have a modem (never had one) - has a gold card (so can do 128 WEP) - is just an AP, so can only do bridging AFAIK; however can use ABS version 1, RG-1000 and AP-500 firmware
RG-1000 - does have a modem - only has a silver card (but this can be replaced with a gold card) - is a router, can create PPPoE connections with later versions of firmware (1.58 onwards?) etc The definitive page on firmware swapping is of course <http://www.personaltelco.net/index.cgi/ApFirmwareSwapping> HTH Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2002 07:26:51 -0400 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: ralph <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [nycwireless] Orinoco rg-1000 vs rg-1100 I know the 1000 has the modem and pppoe built in in case you ever have to use it as a dialup point to connect a bunch of clients to an ISP. Not sure if the 1100 still does. I use the 1000. Whatever you do get, don't bother with their Java client and all that installing. Just get the AP manager software and use it- much easier. I guess the encrytpion is worth to whatever feeling of security you get (knowing that WEP has been broken) At 06:58 AM 10/10/2002, you wrote: Begin Quoted Text >Is there a big difference between the RG-1000 and 1100 for Orinoco.
