Oh boy... We need an intro to 802.11 101 on the BAWUG page. I would suggest picking up a couple of books: "802.11 Wireless Networks: The Definitive Guide" by Matthew Gast and "Building Wireless Community Networks" by Rob Flickenger both from O'Reilly (www.oreilly.com). They should get you up to speed. As for interference... This would get into a bit of a lengthy discussion here of coverage area, power, antennas, channels availible, etc. Tim -- general wireless list, a bawug thing <http://www.bawug.org/> [un]subscribe: http://lists.bawug.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless
