I am using SBC DSL on a system located on the fringe of the allowable
distance from a frame or relay station. When I decided to go wireless
with my laptop I purchased a 2 wire 802.11B card and a combination 2
wire 802.11B router/modem from SBC. At first, my connection to the I-Net
was sporadic, then after some cable repair, it would not connect at all.
A technician came out and after several hours of testing, determined
that the 2 wire router/modem could not read the DSL signal, but that the
Westel modem I had previously used worked without problem. I then
purchased a Linksys router and card (802.11G) and connected to the
Westel router. I can now sit on the patio, some 80 feet distance with 2
interior walls and 1 exterior wall between the laptop and the router and
work with a signal strength and quality of 80%. Despite the frustration,
the experience was beneficial as I caught the Linksys equipment on sale
and saved $50 as compared to the price SBC was charging for the 2 wir 
 equip
ment and upgraded from 802.11B to 802.11G.
