Network Computing reviews 802.11a APs
Network Computing
reviews the
state of 802.11a gateways. Their winner was a Proxim Harmony,
a fairly expensive unit at $695. Netgear and Linksys had poorly
performing units, costing well under $400 (for the SOHO market). The
Netgear is powered by an Atheros chipset, but I'm unsure what 802.11a
chipsets the other products use.
UPDATE: Jim Thompson (
Musenki wizard and former CTO of Wayport), notes that all of the reviewed designs are based off of the
Atheros reference design.
