Are the antennas suitable for 5GHz? What about signal strength? On the MAC it might be useful to install a WiFi scanner which will tell you all about signal strength. There is a free program called "Wifi Scanner" in the AppleStore. It is very useful. I can't help with the COMPEX miniPCI 'cause I got another brand on my Alix 2D13. But I realized that signal strength with 5GHz can be significantly lower than with 2.4GHz using antennas which are meant to work on both bands.

You have a some options: 1) Change your habits to use a fully qualified domain name; e.g., a domain name that ends with a final/trailing dot. chealth.cano.ca is ambiguous (perhaps not in your brain, but to a computer, it doesn't know that you really mean chealth.canoe.ca. which is absolute). So use http://chealth.canoe.ca./ (note the trailing dot). 2) Don't configure a search option in /etc/resolv.conf as each domain listed in the search is appended to the query in order. E.g., if you have centroid.eu and google.com in your search, then your DNS resolver will take chealth.canoe.ca and append centroid.eu., attempt to resolve it but fail. Then it will take chealth.canoe.ca and append google.com., attempt to resolve it but fail, and then finally it will try chealth.canoe.ca., attempt to resolve it and receive a successful response.

I think you have this backwards. It looks up chealth.canoe.ca.centroid.eu first. Your browser apparently doesn't think chealth.canoe.ca is a full domain, and so it starts creating a full name and resolving that. (or not the browser, but the local dns cache. you're not clear what server you're machine is contacting.) fwiw, I only see queries to chealth.canoe.ca and not any local domain extended variants, using both both ping and firefox. on the other hand, if I ping "apple", there are lookup requests for apple.home.tedunangst.com, apple.tedunangst.com, and apple.

Peter, >From the resolv.conf man page: http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=resolv.conf&sektion=5 "The domain and search keywords are mutually exclusive. If more than one instance of these keywords is present, the last instance will override." I believe what is happening is the search keyword is sticking centroid.euto probably everything.

I was browsing http://chealth.canoe.ca when I saw the above log. I'm supposing the resolver looks up chealth.canoe.ca, and then eventually does a lookup for chealth.canoe.ca.centroid.eu. centroid.eu is the domain I configured in resolv.conf by means of DHCP. I'm wondering why it does that though? Someone in the US, like the NSA, can then sit back and see my browsing habits, which I call a leak. I'm hoping on finding the knob that turns this off. The leak wouldn't happen if my centroid.eu nameservers were just in .de but then you can just replace NSA with BND the german intelligence sniffers (s/NSA/BND). I'd really just rather replace the function that allows chealth.canoe.ca.centroid.eu lookup to exit my DSL as all that should exit is a lookup for just chealth.canoe.ca, which takes a different lookup path in the Internet.

As a dirty hack for dhcpd you could probably specify it as hex using "option-119" but would need to handle the dns compression yourself, http://tools.ietf.org/search/rfc3397 contains clues, but it's fiddly.
