Larry, the CISCO list is not correct. For Europe the detailed information can be found in the recommendation ERC/REC 70-03 of the European Radiocommunications Office. It is downloadable from this page:
http://www.ero.dk/documentation/docs/doccategory.asp?catid=2&catname=ECC/ERC/ECTRA%20Recommendations The WLAN frequencies are specified in Annex 3 and the national restrictions can be found in Appendix 3. So for 802.11b/g channels 1-13 can be used across Europe. France has some differing power requirements. Italy require license for outdoor usage. Luxembourg authorisation for public usage. Romania requires an individual license. For the 802.11a frequencies, there are three bands: Annex 3 Band B 5150-5250 MHz for indoor use (36-48) Annex 3 Band C 5250-5350 MHz for indoor use (52-64) Annex 3 Band D 5470-5725 MHz for outdoor use (100-140) However these bands are not available in all European states, details can be found in the recommendation. Spain, Portugal, Greece and Belgium for instance don't allow Annex 3 Band D.
