 My other concern would be saturation of the wireless network. If you tried
 to run this thing during the business day, your wireless users would be
 quite unhappy.

2010-08-18 Thread Juma, Lumumba
Hi all,

I need a wireless storage device for a SOHO setup with built-in software for 
automatic backups or open to allow other software backup products. Any ideas of 
such products?

Thanks,

Lumumba.
