I only have experience with the D-Link AP-900DWL. I saw these on sale at Fry's for $80 ea. a few months ago and bought a pair. I picked up a two foot pigtail to N-female for $25 more from www.fab-corp.com, but I've not yet needed to add an external antenna... So far, these have both run fantastic. I pick them up clearly across a 2000 foot valley using the built-in antenna of the D-Link, and a homebrew cantenna connected to a laptop on the other end (clear line of site, no obstructions). Two of my neighbors pick them up strong through a couple of walls with similar cantennas... The connector is a 'Reverse Polarity SMA' type, which is reasonably common to find adapters, cables, and such for...I believe these use a common Atmel chipset, same as WAP11 and others, and support SNMP (I have like 4 different configuration programs that work on them)...Looking for a good Wireless Access Point that supports 802.11b that also has an External Antenna connection.
If you are price sensitive and want something cheap that works well, but maybe is not built like a tank or is missing a couple premium features, then: RECOMMENDED
