I would recommend to ask your vendors to do an on-site demonstration of their equipment (both the access point and their NICs). I recently had to cancel a PO because the intended location has apparently lots of noise interference -- I was only getting a <=50% signal strength with less than 5 meters between the AP and the PC using 802.11b. At >5 meters, the connection kept on going through a (re)connect-drop cycle.
