[SOCALWUG] Access point /bridges recommendations (g-model)

[john]

I've been using a DLink DWL-900AP for over a year to link two WIRED 
networks, about 5 PC's on each site.  It's been working pretty 
well, but not the fastest, but never a dropout or reconnect 
needed.  Line of sight between the two, about 100 feet outdoors, 
with original omni antennas.

Can anyone suggest a reasonable cost bridge model (g) to try?  I 
tried the DLink DWL-2100AP; basically assigned the mac single point 
to point bridge for security.  Although faster, we experienced so 
many "pauses", and a few out and out "the network has been 
disconnected" messages, that I went back to our original b-model DLink.

Any experience here with other bridges?  I am going to put in a 
directional antennas so I need a bridge/access point that supports 
that.

I was disappointed with the DLink, but it may have been partially 
my fault for not replacing the antennas with directional ones to 
minimize interference.

I guess DLink, Netgear, Linksys are possible choices, plus Cisco 
Aironet being a more expensive solution.

All ideas and experience appreciated.
