Yup, that's the one I have. That's a good price on it, too. > http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833164110 I've also got one of those antennas and it's exellent. It provides a little (1-2dB) more gain as my double-biquad reflector, but it's a lot cheaper (assuming your time is worth much), and a bit easier to use, since it will sit nicely on a table or windowsill. > Use the rt2x00 driver included in 2.6.24 kernels. Cool -- it's good to know that the driver has been added to the kernel sources. -- Grant Edwards grante Yow!
