>TurboCell, in that case it is not 802.11b and even less WiFi.

yup

>Little question. When you say "our versions of TurboCell" do you mean that
>you modified TurboCell from KarlNet ?

in terms of the protocol, no - no one except for KarlNet can modify the
protocol
in terms of little tweaks here and there (syntax etc) - maybe

FYI: Lucent COR/OR solutions & Wave Wireless Speedlan 8000 series all use
TurboCell

>If so what are your edges on KarlNet ?

Tony is just another KarlNet reseller - in terms of modification, he may
change a few syntactical things on the management utility (perhaps add his
own logo?), but no, everything's still the same

>Another question. Can I use KarlNet stuff on the RG-1000 to do bridging (I
>believe so, just to be sure) ?

KarlNet has two methods of turning an RG into a bridge

method one uses TurboCell
1. will make RGs into RORs - so that they can communicate w/ Lucent
COR/RORs, KarlNet Base/Satellites, Wave Wireless Bases ,etc - e.g., they
will talk TurboCell

method two uses 802.11b
1. will make the RG an 802.11b compatible client (like an Ethernet
convertor) in NAT or IP Routing mode
or
2. will make the RG an 802.11b bridge if a special 802.11b AP-Plus upgrade
is loaded onto the AP (due to certain technicalities of the spec, it is not
legal to bridge multiple MACs through one client)

>What would be my cost (I already have two
>RG-1000) ?

really depends on the software upgrade you want

if you want TurboCell (e.g., want to make the RG into an ROR), you have the
following options

SR-4000 - 1 user (MAC) TC upgrade for the RG - $59.50
SR-4100 - 5 user (MAC) TC upgrade for the RG - $89.10
SR-4200 - unlimited user TC upgrade for the RG - $179.10

if you want 802.11b compliant (e.g., you want the RG to act as an EC or
something similar), you have the following options

SE-4500 - 8 user (MAC) 802.11b client upgrade for the RG - $72.00
SE-4510 - unlimited user 802.11b client upgrade for the RG - $89.10
