Technology" in today's Wall Street Journal. They arrive next week. I'm
hoping that they resolve the frequent drops with wireless. I will report
back after a few we
I can make another recommendation for the netgear plugs. I'm delighted
to be out of the world of wireless. Both my squeezeboxen are plugged
into X102's and since I installed them have had no drop outs, no

I'm very happy with the performance of the Netgear units. Zero problems
