There is. Comparing a wireless bridge to an AP is kind of like comparing
MS-DOS to Linux.
It is the extra functionality of an AP that is important for the WISP
market. There are Linux and BSD folks involved in the field. If they could
use wireless bridges in place of expensive APs they would. Yet
No
and what license they plan to use?
I _think_ some version of open source.
Are they going to support more that one 802.11b AP hardware vendor?
?? If they are successful, you won't need any AP hardware vendors. Just a
Linux box with AP software and a wireless card.
Don't forget there are 802

Rick,
You can call the new release Moth, because they're able to sense bat son

Yes, by and large, that's all an AP is, a simple 5-minute
bridge. Leave it to Lucent to complicate things. :) Their access-points
also allow for something called "Wired Equivalent Privacy" which
essentially means you can 'name' your wireless-LAN at the access
point, and then only PCM

Good question. My understanding up to now was that an AP
was a layer-2 bridge from a wireless network into a wired LAN. At
least, that's what my 802.11 AP does here in the garage.

Having read this message and some replies, I take it that "Access Point"
means something more than what I was thinking of - for me, Internet NAP

You obviously have way too much time on your hands. ;-)
I very much approve of the look and you have my vote to make the
changeover.

At this time we only have support for Infrastructure mode. I have a list of
people interested in helping with the software project to build the AP
code,
but have not had the time to organize a project. If there is someone out
there with better organizational skills, we'd love to work with them

Pedro,
Fortunately, it supports themes, and multiple layouts. :)

I think phpWebSite will help us. LEAF developers that aren't
I love the layout!
I just don't like the some of the colours.
but I've read its just the first test, so it's pretty cool.
nice work
