What is the distance you are doing?

I have used a wap 11 with 14 db Yagi and gotten 50-70% link at over a mile
with  the USB linksys radio and its regular antenna.
Also ther are some cards with 100 miliwat outputs unlike the Usual 30
milliwat ones.

Oh yeah... we have an 8.5dbm gain omni at the ISP's
office that had been fed with an amplifier.  And a
14dbm gain yagi here.  However, it's not enough to get a
real link.  Netstumbler shows a very intermittent and
weak connection.

With luck, it won't interfere with others.  Netstumbler
doesn't show anyone else on the channel we're using, or
on adjacent channels.
