Wireless question... Has anyone been able to get Raylink's WISP (or any other vendor's) 802.11a FHSS cards to work with Breezecom's BreezeAccess 2 extended range wireless stuff. Apparently the Raylink cards work with the BreezeNet Pro.11, but not with the new Breeze Access 2 Access units. This is all 802.11a FHSS stuff, and therefore "should be" compatible. So far, Breezecom's response has been that they don't guarantee compatibility, and that their equipment is "802.11 compatible on the basic level", but that "compatibility with other vendors equipment was implemented but not fully supported". Raylink seems to suspect that Breezecom isn't allowing compatibility because of the price difference in their competitor's products. Isn't this what "standards" are supposed to protect John Q. Public from? Ken
