I have achieved 200 yards in a real practical test walking a Laptop away and measuring the distance.
With a Yagi I have used the same Wap Laptop combo and gone a measured distance of 1400 meters with a 11 mbps rate and 50% or better signal strength. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Kelly Abbott Sent: Thursday, June 27, 2002 12:46 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [BAWUG] A question about range Anyone know the true outdoor range of a regular old WAP 11 or its equivalent? Sans yagi. I'm not looking for outrageous use cases. Just normal NIC to AP distance tests. I'm having trouble finding good anecdotal evidence online and their datasheet leaves me skeptical. ftp://ftp.linksys.com/datasheet/wapIIds.pdf 500 Meters seems a little short to me.
