Wireless

December 30, 2005 by nxt

I recently bought the 3com OfficeConnect travel router to have wireless internet whenever I'm at my parents.
I'm very pleased to see that - despite some reviews I've read - the range is very good.
I chose this one because it can function as an accesspoint, router or client. The client mode can be usefull when I'm with other people since my laptop (acer travelmate 800LCi) only has 11b, so I can get some higher speeds with this thing. It would have been nice though if it could optionally be powered by usb so that I wouldn't need to carry the adapter everywhere I go.
