Symbol Wireless Networker |
| |
|
Possibly the best wireless network card
available for your Pocket PC is the Symbol "Wireless Networker". This
compact flash type 1 card can easily be used in any Pocket PC or laptop with a
Type 1 or Type 2 slot. Symbol provides excellent drivers for your Pocket
PC or Pocket PC 2002 device. |

The picture above shows just how tiny this
card really is. In fact, it has the smallest form factor of all
wireless CF cards currently available. The fact that it is a type 1
card will guarantee compatibility with all Pocket PC devices. |

Linksys Wireless AP + Cable/DSL router
|
| |
|
Linksys is a leading manufacturer of
affordable high quality networking products. Links Access Points and
routers are an excellent choice and offer excellent interoperability and
performance. I highly recommend their products. They are of
excellent quality and performance and offer great support. They are
also good with firmware upgrades. I can say that their wireless
compatibility/support has improved quite a bit over the past year due to
their excellent firmware upgrades.
The Particular model we will be looking at is the BEFW11S4. This
wireless access point also acts as a Cable/DSL router and has a built-in 4
port switch for wired connectivity. The device works very well with
the Symbol Wireless Networker and should also work well with other CF
wireless cards. |
