Hey,

I'm going to be setting up a wireless network in a friend's house, probably
with 2-3 access points. I was looking at the Linksys products for 802.11g.
I've read a couple of reviews that said the newer firmware does support
bridging for the WRT54G. However, I called up Linksys and they said it
doesn't. So, which is it? Anyone have any suggestions?

I'd probably be using the PCI 802.11g cards and a 802.11g print server from
Linksys as well (might as well keep it all in the same company, right?)

Does anyone have any suggestions? I may get 2-3 routers instead of one
router and a pair of access points, assuming the routers will be able to
connect and see each other...

Or can someone suggest a good company other than Linksys? I'll need a
router/access point or three, a print server for ethernet, IEEE1284 and USB,
along with PCI cards. No need to keep it in the same company, although I
gather the interoperability would be best.

Thanks,

Adam

Orinoco, Buffalo, Dlink, and SMC are other choices.

No need to keep it to one brand - maybe if you're interested in using the
accelerated 802.1g functions like Speedbooster or Nitro.
