you're legal. So why does the pot

Of course you can build a radio kit from Ramsey, but you won't be using it
on commercial frequencies. You know
I hear someone is coming out with a certified MT system and I hear
that another someone is coming out with a certified Star system.
Oh yeah, I understand that Tranzeo does their own testing and certification.
Very impressive...

Yep, and addition to being fully FCC Part 15 certified, I plugged it in with
a UL approved Power cord too :-P
I don't need to justify legality
I would check pigtails and jumpers or possibly a radio card replacement
just to be sure. I have had good luck with MT as APs using both atheros
based cards as well as prism based cards. All clients radios were prism
based (CB3, Tranzeo). The RB200 boards have seemed a little more solid,

Of course you
The Orinoco AP series was a really rock solid radio. I still have many that
are trucking along!
I sure wish they were still around (as who they really were- not Proxim).
And you REALLY should be looking at using legal equipment- especially if you
are in this as a business!
MT based access points
I believe the Mikrotik RouterBoard 200's will take PCMCIA cards, allowing
use of the Orinoco cards.
They're getting hard to find, but they are still around.
